 |
|
Having got totally sick of my zoo med little dripper which either came out in a torrent or not at all, I was searching good old ebay and found the " home alone plant watering system". For the price of 99p you get a strong little bag which you fill with water and this has a caperilly wick in it. I have bought 2 for my pygmy chameleon tanks and they clip just under the viv lids , releasing a drip at a time onto the leaves. Thought Id share.
Love Jan |

The bag hangs ouside the viv, I have 2 that I use for the oygmy chams and one that I use for my yemens- the capillary wick can be suspended juust above the mesh roof you see.

Mark, If i put the bag on the inside my Loki would eat it, he attempts to eat anything!!!. Like I said for a mere 99p this has solved my chams drinking problems- even the little pygmies- now that DOES sound daft!- benefit from it .It produces a nice steady drip- unlike the "real" drippers which drip all the while youre stood there but stop the minute you walk away.
