>>thanks for your reply but for one i dont want to change bedding cause they might go off feed. and secondly the water doesnt actually tip over when he puts his body in there thats when it all comes out.



They'll be fine with a switch in bedding. I swapped mine from paper towel to aspen to bark ( I love bark ) and they ate like pigs. I recommend bark as a substrate.



Also, the idea in the first reply to your post was absolutely brilliant. That's probably your best bet.



And also, I thought one was never supposed to use Cypress bedding for reptiles (or small animals) because the fumes did terrible things?
