Water Bottles

[ClaireBear]

I started using the Ferplast water bottles recently as the ones that came with the cage were leaky and annoying and suddenly these are leaky and annoying too

Does anyone know of any waterbottles that don't leak? Although I suppose it will test the quality of the new vet bed

ive also used this one in the past:

the Mr sippy bottle was great but i found the bracket became loose after several months use and everytime my boys drank from it the bottle would fall off the bracket causing water to go everywhere

those sippy ones I use now and just started leeking since we got the two story cage, possibly because the pigs run about shaking the cage, I dont remove them from the bracket though just fill them from a jug but I will keep an eye on the bracket.

Thanks x

I had to remove the bottle from the bracket every night as my piggies are not big drinkers of their water - how do you empty the old/dirty water out of the bottle if you don't remove it? .

The glass bottles in my first link are good - i use them for all my pigs and have never had any leaks that i know of. They can be fit to either the inside of the cage (which i have to avoid anyone knocking them off when walking past) or use them on the outside of the cage - they also have a cute floating yellow duck inside

Tesco's bottles, they are red and white, no brand name on them, but they are fantastic and come in two sizes. They are less that £1.50 I think, but are the best bottles I have used in 20 years without fail. No leaks and a good long spout to drink from too. I have 6 of them now.

My pigs are big drinkers, we have to refill everyday and they always finish them which is great cause I dont usually have to take the bottle off the cage

I found the super pet glass water bottle awful.
The nozzel would rarely go on in the right place, so the flat edge wouldn't be flat on the cage. It would constaly be leeking, and I'd be having to re-fill it every couploe of hours.

Also, I found the glass bottles cheaper in Jollys

I use the glass one too

You can turn it round so it is in the right position.

I was just about to say that

I did, but that's what would make it leek, to get it in the right postion so the leeking wasn't taht bad it wouldn't be flat on the cage I think I just picked up a rubbish one haha, my aunt brought one for her chinchilla, and the first one she picked up was cracked.
