little dripper

[Adam Harrelson]

can a little dripper be ok for a small reptibreeze cage

Yes Just make sure you have some type of drainage system for the excess water that hits the bottom of the cage, or wipe it down every night.

I used one for my baby cage. I just placed a plant under neath the dripper to catch the water, but you can drill holes in the bottom and set up a drip tray.

As said above, yes. Put a plant under like camimom said. You'll go through more water than you expect. The best and easiest drainage i have found so far is..

Go to walmart or somewhere like that and get storage shelving. I have plastic ones with solid shelves, but the slit ones would prob be better. But with the plastic ones, i just drilled a 1 inch hole in the top shelf. Then i drilled a few holes in my plant pot, and one (or a few) small holes in the middle of the cage. place the pot over that hole and the water should go down the holes you made into a bin you can place on the next shelf down.

Bonsai pot

I have my ficus in a big bonsai pot with river stones to cover the soil (two holes in bottom is standard) I than sit a brick inside a casserole dish and cover the casserole dish with the pot the brick helps sturdy it. It catches all the dripper water and the Panther has no access to the water. I just empty the water, which is not that much once a week and wash the casserole dish. So far it works nicely. I think the brick absorbs the water too. I use distilled water and it seems to stay fairly clean.
