Should a Guinea Pig get clean drinking water every time?
Guinea pigs need clean, fresh drinking water every day. There are many different types and sizes of drinking bottles. Choosing the right drinking bottle is not always easy. A larger drinking bottle does not mean that it does not need to be changed for longer. The water must be changed daily for the animals.
Why should there be more or larger bottles in a Guinea pig group?
If you have a larger Guinea pig group, a larger drinking bottle is recommended, so that there is enough to drink for all group members. A small drinking bottle can run out too quickly for a large group.
What is the best way to give water to a guinea pig?
The most well-known way of giving water is the drinking bottle. This is easy to attach to the enclosure and gives the guinea pigs access to their drinks all day long.
Did you know?
Guinea pigs drink between 100 and 400 ml on average?
There are therefore quite large differences in drinking behavior among guinea pigs. Drinking behavior is mainly influenced by diet. A guinea pig that has eaten a lot of hay and/or dry food will drink more and a guinea pig that has had more green food will drink less.
A drinking bottle is also very hygienic, as no dirt can get into it. It is very important that the drinking bottle is cleaned regularly, otherwise algae and bacteria can grow in it. These microorganisms are harmful to the health of guinea pigs.
✔ Hygienic
✔ Always access to water
✔ Controllable water intake
Another major advantage of a drinking bottle is that you can control your water intake. So you can clearly see how much your guinea pigs drink and that is important to monitor their health. Animals that are sick and no longer drink are extra vulnerable and can quickly end up in mortal danger due to dehydration.
