I put their two chick waterers right in front of it with a little water. They immediately went to them, but once they were empty, they didn't touch the waterer. I will post pictures tonight, I modified the design slightly and I really like it...just need them to do the same!

I made a modified version of https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=188253&p=1 and it functions fantastically. I put it in with my 3 w.o. Cornish X's and they won't come near the thing. I put their chick waterers beside it, even grabbed a few and put their beaks down in the...
