LOL! Yes, it's the right thing to do. It took us awhile to remove the water bowl. The only thing she used it for was one time she got mad at me for putting her in her tank right after her bath without letting her play and so she climbed in the bowl and tried to swim in it! Just make sure you give him regular baths and feed him his veggies and he will stay hydrated.

Thank you he gets regular forced baths!.. as he doesnt like it much he is improvin though and we always mist his food

Give him time and he will get used to the bath. Dexter used to hate them until I started giving her a bath in the tub. She's still not a huge fan but tolerates them a little more. I learned she likes when I run the shower head on her and she will crawl up to the spray and sit so her head is in the middle where there is no water but her body gets sprayed. Just yesterday she started to put her nose under the water, so she's figuring out more ways to give me a heart attack!

I didn't think jeb drank from his water bowl either untill one day I saw him take a sneaky sip IMO it's would always be better to have it there 'just incase' he/she needs it. Mind you I live in Australia and animals can die/dehydrate in a very short time without water
