Reako,
Rosies in captivity can do just fine on food alone for quite awhile before taking a drink, provided that the cage has limited ventilation.

I have always thought that rosies can do without water longer than any king. Not sure, but I have a hunch based on raising some babies for about 6 months with no water. All did just fine and grew normally.
