Perhaps it's learned behaviour, but mine poop on the ground inside their cage. in nearly a year of ownership, I have had turds in my water bowl exactly twice.

We have had discussions here on this subject in the past, and the general consensus is that this behaviour is supposed to mean that something is wrong with the cage humidity if they are pooping in the water bowl.

Chomper used to poop in his water every day, I too thought it was normal at the time, but since I did a complete turnaround with my husbandry, I have not been seeing this happen like it used to.
