Mine prefers water bottle over bowl she actually knocks over the bowl when she has it

There are ways to prevent tipping of the bowl and bottles are not safe for hedgehogs.

You can glue down the water bowl or somehow to keep him from tipping it over and somehow section it off to keep him from getting shavings in it. Although water bottles are not suggested, my hedgehog has used one since I've gotten him and has done fine.

And he'll be fine until something happens, and that is the thing, it can be tomorrow or it can be in a year or maybe nothing happens but is it fair to risk it when there is a better way?

Tongues get caught, teeth chipped (there is a current thread on it), water might stop coming out and you'd have a dehydrated hedgehog and also is an un natural way for them to drink.
