We built a chicken nipple watering container this weekend and it's taken three days, but this morning my most curious little hen finally figured it out. When I got home from work they had consumed roughly a quarter of a gallon of water between the five of them (they're all bantams).
I don't know if they've all figured it out yet, but no one looked sluggish so I'm assuming so.
I just had to share here. It's the first modification we've made since they came to live with us that has actually worked the way we intended.
Now to get them out of the nesting boxes and onto the roosting bar...

2 girls, 1 dog, 2 cats, 12ish goldfish, and 5 (4 hens and 1 roo) silver penciled barred rock bantams
