drinking bottle..

[wafflyroo]

hi guys.. got a question I've read in some articles that when there are baby rabbits, it would be best to use drinking bottles (instead of bowls). the reason given was that if using bowls, there may be a chance that the babies will fall into the water or get hypothermia because they get wet.
my mother rabbit has been using bowls for the whole time I've had her, so I'm worried that she may not know how to use it..
any suggestions or ideas?

You could get a bowl that attaches to the side of the cage, so then it should be high enough so the babies can't get to it, but mum still can. Otherwise, I've never heard of this problem before. I would think if you check on them often enough you would find out if one was wet before it got sick from it. As a side note, Bandit gets his paws wet in his bowl all the time
