    As long as you have an adequate water dish you probably don't need the damp paper towels.
    That dampness could cause some mold to form which could lead to a respiratory problems.(Just my opinion)
    Make sure the water dish is shallow and allows easy access. Some babies I have raised have had difficulty accessing taller water dishes.
    Most have no trouble but for the slow learners I keep water dishes shallow.
