Barely drinks water
Yes, my male hamster rob, Mocha barely drinks as u saw at the title. I do regularly change his water but I rarely see him drinking. Ive checked if the bottle was working multiple times and yes, it does work. Advice please? THANKS

Re: Barely drinks water
He's probably drinking mostly at night, they drink very little & as long as the bottle is within easy reach & works ok he should be fine.

Re: Barely drinks water
Hamsters don't generally drink very much. It would take all of mine more than a week to get through a 150ml bottle.
I do find that my dwarf hamster drinks way more from a bowl. Have you tried giving water in a bowl instead? You have to place it on a surface away from substrate to keep it clean but it's a lot more natural for the hamster

Re: Barely drinks water
I agree with the others. I also give my hammy steamed vegetables everyday and I know that gives him fluid. Do you give yours veggies?
