Water bowl?

For the water bowl(the one for drinking not soaking in) I was thinking of getting a large Kong Dog Dish. Because they're very heavy and hard to tip and can withstand lots of damage. Any ideas for a soaking tub? I have some idea but can't find anything big and heavy enough for a Savannah.


Maybe instead of bowl I could do something like this? I could secure it so it couldn't be tipped. This also might be easier to clean out if he pooped in it.

I know it's for dog's, I'm looking for a reptile one, the pic is just an example

Savannahs won't soak. They need proper humidity and deep burrowable substrate.

I use a Kong dish and it works great for my BT. You might also look at the very large ceramic water dishes at Petsmart. They are heavy and hard to tip as well.

I know they need the humidity and need to dig, some do seem to like soaking though, and it does help during sheds. I'd try a pool and if he didn't use it I'd take it out of the cage.

Good to know, thanks. One question though, with a ceramic dish would it get to hot because of heating? Or would it stay cool because of the water inside?
