Good afternoon all.....

can anyone suggest a better way to dispense water...i know there are a couple of dispensers on the market.

I sometimes have to be away from home for a few days and i know that the water in Monty's viv evaporates really quickly and i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and overcome it with a solution????

Never seen water dispensers - but, given the warmth in a royal viv, wherever the water is, it's going to deteriorate a bit ie slimy yuk.

However, this just looks disgusting but won't hurt the snake. Ideally personally I like to change water every other day, but, if you can't do that occasionally, I'd just provide a really big water dish, fill it to capacity, and leave it in the cool end, so that there's no chance of total evaporation.

why not get one of these, it should be good to keep your snakes thirst quenched. of course test the times in advance of needing it for real.
