Sometimes it can be hard to judge just how much they drink, while ingesting too much water from chewing the bottle is bad for them drinking too much is a different matter & if she is actually drinking a lot it could be a sign that something is wrong, possibly a UTI or kidney problem.
I saw your other post about sleeping at night & while that may just be natural behaviour, most active at dawn & dusk if she is less active then that can also be a sign that something's not right.
She is active during the night but it was just at 4 am which I found a bit odd. She's still very active as I've woken up to her cage being a mess from her digging around in it. Her bottle has been up for about a week and she's drunk half of it, is that okay or the sign of something wrong?
