Excellent! We recently pulled ours out again when we had to separate a hen from the flock. Rather than using a dish waterer, we just mounted the nipple bottle to the side of her coop so she could keep drinking like she was used to.

MountainGoat, I'm really glad it worked out for you. We still love our bottle waterer and will be starting our next round of chicks on it too. Funny how they all catch on once one does. Your tip about putting something under to protect the cardboard is a good one. Thanks!

You could use any poultry nipple to make one of these chick waterers. They're fairly easy to come by online. You do want to pay attention to the size of drill bit you need, as that varies by nipple type and application.

A simple nipple waterer for your chick brooder using a standard bicycle water bottle and cage. Cheers!
