Rat water bottles

[AnthonyJ]

Good evening,

Does anybody know where to get the ends of the rat water bottles from? say to attach to the end of a coke bottler or similar? I'm on the south side of brisbane by the way.


Thanks in advance,

Dont know about brissie but URS and Herp Shop sell them and can post them out to you.

dont know about in brissy. but i get mine from a local produce store. so if you have a handy produce give them a try

URS is the only place Ive found that sells the actual bung, herp shop sell them complete with bottle, once I start breeding rodents I plan on buying bungs from URS and using them in soft drink bottles!!

do you know what size bottle they fit?

dont really want to buy the whole bottle itself, rather use a coke or water bottle or something.

cheers

I have some that screw onto a standard bottle, like a coke bottle. But I can't remember the name of the brand. They have a rubber part on the inside where the metal tube goes through and then a plastic cap over the top which screws onto the bottle. If I can find any packaging from then I'll be able to tell you the brand, but I don't think I have any of the packets any more.

Not sure dreadie as i havnt purchased any personally but I would say you would find a cheap bottle that would easily fit..

I would rather buy them from Herp Trader as URS charge a fortune for shipping and handling.
10 bugs c/w shipping is $55. Thats $5.50 each.
On herp trader their $6 a bung INCLUDING the bottle plus freight, which is normally 1/2 the price listed on URS.
Herp Trader is HEAPS cheaper and better to deal with than URS any day imo.
Cheers,
