Clorinated Water

imbriav Dec 09, 2004 08:05 PM

I have just purchased two beautiful Red Foots. They appear to be very healthy . They are eating and drinking well and movining around in their pen very well. I have read that clorinated water may not be good for them , however it also says the jury is still out on this subject. Can anyone give me some advice on this. Does anyone have experience with this. I do not want to cause harm to my new pets.

thanks

Ever tasted the difference between "drugged" water and "pure" water. Why would you buy water in a bottle?

I allow all water to "cure" in a plastic watering can at least 24 hours before giving it to any of my tortoises.. you should do the same!

Love those redfoots!
