VoHooman Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Tooka recently soak everything I give him into his water. For example, he puts all of his toys that are fallen to his water, then play with them, I give him corn, he puts the corn completely in water and then eats it. I don't know why he is doing this but this is funny. Except that I have to change his water every five minutes. So you guys have any idea? Is he trying to wash them?

Timbersmom Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Sounds like a dunker to me! I really have no idea why they do what they do, but Timber does that with certain foods. Just certain ones mind you, but some things always get dunked then picked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 My CAG, Sterling Gris dunks his food also. Sterling does like water a lot so I guess he just wants more moisture for certain foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray P Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Cricket my amazon is a dunker, but Corky my CAG is every now and than. I think I`m going to pipe running water to there cage so when they want a fresh drink they can got it them self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Well, if the dunking bothers you, you could replace the water bowl with a drinking bottle to ensure the water is clean when your gone all day for example at work. Other than that, no harm other than having to change water all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kins2321@yahoo.com Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Of COURSE he is special... but I do remember Sophie and Kiki dunking everything when they were younger. Not anymore. Think of it as Oreo's and milk! Gotta change the milkA water bottle is a GREAT idea! I just deliver to the one cage their seed mix, four waters, a platter full of fresh veggies and some fruit. I feel like I give them breakfast in bed everyday. Oh.... don't forget the toast! The other cage they will use to play in. They like to eat together for some reason, so if I put bowls of food and water on their deluxe cage.... they ignore it. Whatever! They make some weird decisions.

judygram Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Josey and Gypsy are dunkers, Sunny used to do it more but she has slacked off but you are not alone in this necessity of having to change the water often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
