Re: regurgitate and eat directly afterwards again

I guess you can say that they really want to eat what they have in front of them, sometimes animals can have strange behaviour

Rick, by 'fresh water', do you mean new water every day? Because I refresh the water every 2 days, which I always thought was ok.

I will surely add it to the Wiki and will try to put some tricks to help with it. I can't do it today probably, but I'll surely do it

Re: regurgitate and eat directly afterwards again

I also change the water every 2 days. Excepting those that have some excrements in it. Then I gonna take the water bowl out and desinfect it with some disinfectant (usually alcohol). From time to time I'll do that with every bowl. If I have problems with calcification, I fill the bowl with vinegar (yes, the one we use to make dressing) and let it there for a night. Afterwards they're like new.

I do exactly the same There is a lot of calcium in the water, so I also let the vinegar soak for a night.
