joe14 98 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) I use big ceramic dog bowls for food and water, they use the bowls more as its easier for them to get more water. I use the giant 1 litre drinking bottles aswell with a coop cup underneath so they drink out of that when it drips. When I feed rabbit I tie it to the cage.

J.DOG 1,355 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 I use water bottles and for food I bought some bowls that are made of concrete with a tub in the middle so they can't tip it , and I'm glad I did they haven't knocked over their food since. Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 I got a big ceramic food bowl for mine so they can't tip there dry over... Now they get in and dig it out! Lol. So I gave up and just throw them a few handfuls of dry in the run among there Tyres and tubes etc when they haven't got a carcass in and they seem to enjoy looking for the food actually.
