Got my new guy about 4 days ago, he's just been flipping his water dis over -.-, and soaks he just tries to get out of (water is warm not cold). Today I filled his water dish up and he's been drinking for 10 min+ now. His urates were bright yellow when he went the other day. Is he trying to re hydrate or is there kidney issues ive been told. Any help, opinions are greatly appreciated.
