How many bird owners of large parrots give them solely a water bottle to drink out of? I know birds love to soak their pellets in their water and eventually splash that mixture on your walls so I was wondering how many use solely a water bottle and no cup?

Kumiko likes to wash his face in his bowlso no bottle for him either. He has yet to make soup!
Tyco loves to make soup but I find that if I put her water on the oppisite side of the cage from her food she keeps her water clean so I don't use bottles either. Tyco likes to try and bath in her water as well so even though she can't very well I let her play a little water splash never hurt anything.

Alcazar has a water bowl, he uses it to also bathe in and puts pinata pieces in it.I have to move the parrot pinata.
I've been thinking I need to get a water bottle for days when I'm away for a few hours, because on days when I'm here I can change his water five times. This is what he likes to do to his water!
Sorry, I've got to read the tutorial about re-sizing pictures! I'll try again later.
Bella has has a bowl, but I'm thinking about getting her a bottle as well as she dumps her water out and if she dumps her water while I'm at work, she won't have water until I get home. So, I'm going to leave her the water bowl as she likes to play in the water and make soup, but I also need to make sure she has fresh drinking water all the time.
I was trying not to put this on photobucket 'cause it's kind of gross, but those of you with soup makers will understand!
Yea this is why I think I am going to raise Rosco on a water bottle, they make a mess in their water then risk getting a bacteria infection and or gram negative constantly and I will wean Rosco so I think this is the better way to so and those lixit 32 oz big top end are nice bottles.
