: For those of you that don't know, DO NOT give distilled water to your gliders. Since it is free of minerals it will remove electrolytes and trace minerals from the body and over time cause deficiencies.
: EARLY DEATH COMES FROM REGULAR DRINKING OF DISTILLED WATER

I was told just the opposite and now I am confused. I have been using some kind of bottled water (I think it is called Silverrock- buy it at Walmart for 58 cents for the big milk jug size) ever since I have had my babies. I am confused because I would think that pure water, ie rain, would be what they would drink in their natural environment so why would this not be good. Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks,
Melissa
