i don't soak my guys often because they spaz really bad so i probably do it like twice a month but i did it a couple extra times for the gravid girls. i have an ild margarine container with a small hole poked in the bottom and it drips down onto the rocks in the cage. kaiser and gertie both drink when i do this and kaiser gets really excited about it. ivan and walter will sometimes sit near the spray and flick their tongues catching the mist but sometimes they think it is raining and they run under their cave and hide

There is always a water dish in my collared cage.
A week after hibernation, Sara drank water for 2 minutes !!
But since that day, I havnt seen her drink .. she only licks dishes border when I refill it and have short baths once a week.
She usually jump in water for seconds and after she go immediatly basking.
By the way, when she smells bad, its time for a forced bath ...
