I LOVE my Birdy Butlers...alot of my birds still hold their food by spicket..and soak it..LOL especially pixie sprite and cosmo...i still give water to play in but this way they always have clean water..have had them for Years LOVE them to me they are a mustNo water bowls? do they ever clog or constantly drip out all the water...this is one of my biggest fears of using water bottles....plus some of my guys enjoy dunking some of their food and I would hate to not let them! lol
