MISTING MY VEILED CAM!

[lthrbecks]

In this current and unusual, UK heatwave - 30°C Is it OK to gently mist my wee Figaro?
The current heat wave, is unprecedented!

Many thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Heatwave or not I spray down my chams often , especially if we are outside. Be careful around the eyes and nose.

See below my boy Henry at 3-4 months watered down

Cheers Inky. Its hard to avoid his face!

He doesn't seem to drink from what I can see. He used to take water for me in a dropper, but that's a month ago or more! All I can do is mist a few times a day

Don't spray it directly at his face...spray it on a very fine/gentle setting from way above.

Ahh OK. Like fine rainfall? I wish he'd drink though!

Like a fine rainfall!

Have you tried dripping water on the end of the nose at the rate of one or two drops per second?

Oh yes, many times. He did drink on a few occasions, but that's many many weeks ago. I try every time he's out of his cage. Sadly, to no avail lately. I'm tempted to let him into the garden as our weather has been in the high 20's
