    BP water dish in tub setup
    Basically I have my BP in a tub and everything is perfect including his feeding response but I cannot figure out a solution to the BP flipping the water dish and soaking the substrate. It's almost a game at this point. I have tried countless different dishes, some heavier and it makes no difference...

    Just wondering if anyone else out there has had this problem and if you have figured out a solution I would love to hear it

    Thanks in advance

    Cheers!

    How big is your ball and how big is your tub?

    I'd go with a ceramic cat dish myself. The ones I prefer are brown outside and blue inside, glazed. Heavy. They make everything from 3" up to 11".

    My ball is about 3.5 - 4 ft. and I am housing him (it?) in a 40 qt. Sterilite tub.

    Thanks for your suggestion... I'll check out some pet stores this week and see if I cant find one

    I use ceramic dishes, as described above... mine are brown outside and pink or blue inside- probably the same brand as the poster above's! Some are white with a doggie paw print ;)

    The UPC on the bottom of mine were worn off. :(

    Luckily I was able to find them online with a little hunting.

    I thought they made a bigger one. I'll check at work tomorrow. :D
