So I had to go to the doctor today because I have strep apparently, anyways when I came home, I seen the little guy up side down in his water bowl. I freaked and ran over there he I picked him up and he was still responsive, and he seems fine now, but that could have been bad he was under the che and upside down in his water bowl. I think I am going to find an alternative to the flower pot bottom.

Get some small pebbles for the bottom of the waterer. That makes it easier for them to climb out of.

Along with the pebbles that Yvonne suggested, put the water dish away from the CHE. If there's pebbles or marbles it gives them some help when they push on them. And if he's on his back it's better if it's not under the CHE or a light.
