Every day these chicks knock their water over! So I've finally bit the bullet and ordered some nipples. Going to steal someone's idea of using coke or water bottles until I move them in the coop.

Just be sure to poke a tiny hole in the top of the coke bottle. Without the hole, you may get a vacuum-lock, in which they will peck at the nipple and no water will come out.
I just ordered some, too. I'm so anxious to get them and start using them- the dirty/spilled water issue is never ending! I'm hoping my girls will learn quickly as yours did. Mine are almost 6 weeks old, so I'm hoping their not "too old to learn new tricks". Time will tell, I suppose....
Yay!! I'm so ready to get mine! Can you post a picture?So, I'm loving these chicken nipples (there's a statement I never thought I'd say lol)! I just installed 3 nipples to a gallon size pitcher and put it in with the girls. They were so curious that within 5 minutes they had it figured out. And, the water's still clean!!!!
