Do BPs drink out of their water dish or drink water at all?

yea they drink water but you don't always see it.....most of the time after a meal is when you will catch them in the act...mine have waterbowl big enough to soak in & they all use em'.

Yep. You just probably haven't seen it - since you can't watch them 24/7. After handling my BP, I'll sometimes put his head over the water dish and he'll let me watch him drink. They also get water from their food. They should be given a water dish large enough for them to soak in.
