watering the dragons

OK..so dragons more frequently drink water that is moving, example when you mist them, has anyone tried a dropper at the top of the tank that drips down either the side of the tank or a fake plant or something? the only thing i would worry about would be the humidity in the tank, what do you all think?

A water drip system isn't necessary at all. Though some dragons will drink water from a dish or lap up water that has been misted on their backs, for the most part, except for babies, you don't need to mist or leave water in their tanks. If they are eating plenty of greens and insects, they would get sufficient moisture from their diet to meet their needs. I typically just mist their greens that's it and my dragon poops regularly without any problems.
