My girls drink all kinds of water: pond water, toliet water (have to keep the lid down on that one), livestock water, chicken water, basically anything that retains water they have to check it out. Ruby snorkels the pond filter out of the pond.........hehhe......maybe she thinks she needs filtered water.....
I was thinking the same thing! My two bring dirt and in on their mouths when I take them out, and it ends up in the water bowl. They both stick their chins in the water to drink. I have to change it out and pour the water out too often, and I'm afraid it would get pricey. They seem to be satisfied with tap water.
We used to give tap water at first cos we drank tap water ourselves... but then we started to drink bottled water when we moved to a different city cos we didn't know the water quality there. Now we use filtered water since we installed that
Boeboe likes to drink from the pond though... but I'm thinking it's fine cos fishes and other stuff is living nicely in there...
We drink bottled water and give our Bullies the same. Would not expect the Bullies to drink the tap water if we do not. Yes nothing but spoiled Bullie Babies here[emoji7].
