Ducks and nipple waterer systems

[chicken-chik]

This might be a stupid question but... can ducks drink out of a pvc pipe nipple waterer system like chickens can? I love the one I use for my chickens, so mess free and clean, I am hoping to be able to do the same thing with my ducks. Will they drink out of it if I also have a kiddie pool for them to play in?

They may use it, but ducks need something deep enough to dunk their heads in. You may inadvertently cause your kiddie pool to get dirtier faster because they’ll prefer that over the nipple.

Nipple water dispensers are for Chickens. Ducks need to Dunk their heads to clean nares and eyes...
