How often do they drink?

We got our veiled on Friday and he is 2 months old. I know they drink their water off of the leafs in their tank but how much do they drink a day and how do we know they are getting enough water?

Watch for sunken eyes and orange urate, thats the white stuff in their poop. If they have either or both it is dehydrated.

You can tell if their getting enough, by looking at bowel movement. Nice white urates = hydration. Orange and yellow is indicator of not enough.
