Hey y’all so I have a problem. I bought this “no leak” water bottle from petsmart, picture included. This has a different type of nozzle *important*. It worked well for like 1 month until it started leaking. We decided not to spend more money, and just added a bowl underneath to catch the water. This has become very problematic with my new schedule. I bought a normal guinea pig bottle, but they DONT REMEMBER HOW TO DRINK FROM IT. I left them alone with their new bottle after showing them how to drink from it for 4 hours. They didn’t drink a single drop! Please help me find a way for them to know how to drink from the bottle!

Yeah as Lady Kelly says put both in and they will be ok..we have one bottle and a small bowl now as we had a leaky bottle..they all take turns using each, all good! Xx
 
:agr: Just leave the bottle and a small bowl in for them. They will find water when they are thirsty and will have a choice.
 
(I'm sure they'll have taken in some water from either the bottle or the bowl, but if you are really, really worried you can always give them a small piece of cucumber - not too much as it's not a good idea to have too much watery veg - and they won't dehydrate. This may slow down their learning process with the new/old water bottle though!)
