Hamster Central - View Single Post - How many water bottles should you provide?

Thank you for your replies everybody. My concern was sparked by a move to the Ferplast Sippy bottles which one of my hamsters proved she didn't know how to use. I went straight back to the traditional 'ball and spout' bottles but it got me thinking about contingencies in the event that a bottle was to fail.

I do check their bottles every day and give them a test for functionality using a finger so one should be ok.

When we go away and a friend house-sits I think I will add an extra bottle per cage just in case.
