Leaving for the weekend... Petsitter cant come

Post by sparrowsong98 » Sun Jul 16, 2017 6:48 pm

So, I am going camping, and my dear finches are going to be left alone. They have a tube feeder (holds around 1/3 cup) but I am afraid that that wont be enough water for them. Will it? or should I buy another waterer?
I currently own:
An Australian shepherd
Many chickens
4 goats
A cat
And a bunny

Just hang up a few seed cups both with food and water, they'll be fine.

sparrowsong98 Be sure to have two sources of water, just in case one would leak or fall off the cage.
3 Purple Grenadiers, 1 Goldbreast + 1 cat.
