I had my male chew through another tub that I had. It had a hole in it from where I changed my mind on a design. Never change your mind, if you do I would glue a metal washer there with some aquarium silicone. I have also thought about using JB weld it is fairly cheep it would be very efficient, just be sure to let it set up for 24 hours before you put in any rodents.
I've successfully used JB weld to close up holes for water bottles. I decided I wanted the hole up a bit higher. I put packing tape on the inside, then I globbed up the hole with JB weld. Little buggers cant get a tooth around it.


If you didnt want to risk a hole in the side, make a second hopper to drop your water bottle into from the lid.
