i think it would be best to do it everyday
i change all my rodent every day.and every other day i will rins them out with hot water to kill any germs.ounce ro twice a week i wash them with soap.
you may not know how quickly any germs and stuff can grow in there.
i think of it as would you want to sit a cup of water for 2 days then drink it.
yah i know i wouldn’t want to.
not if it’s in a water bottle. if it’s in a water bottle change it weekly when you clean the cage.
I don’t think it matters (I’ve had gerbils before), so long as the gerbil DOES actually have water. Hope that source helps… (I think it gives pretty much basic info)
It would be ok, but ideally, you should change it everyday, and wash it with soap (making sure to get it all out) at least once a week, and rinse with hot water, at least every two days if not everyday, to eliminate the threat of germs and disease,
Yes!
Poor thing needs clean water!
It should be fine for 2 days.
Just don’t leave it any longer cos then it could get dirty and your lil gerbil might get sick :]
Totally okay!!
i have two gerbils and i rince their bottle with hot water every 3 days or so and they are fine so that is okay as long as they always have access to a water bottle!!
good luck with the gerbil(s)!
Chang the water every day
