How can I tell if my broody is drinking???

[AtlantisPeeps]

I have a broody sitting on 5 eggs. She's one of those broodies who doesn't get off the nest. Ever. I hand feed her every day, and clean her poop out of the box, but I can't force her to drink. How will I know if she's drinking? I have a little elevated water bowl in her box that she just has to reach over and drink, but I don't see water disappearing. Her poo was big, terribly smelly, and very liquidy/soft almost like a giant blob of diarrhea. Not trying to be gross, but it may help. Thanks.

Oh lord, i have my very own sitting... I just remove her from the nest everyday and dip her beak in water, after a couple of times she gets the idea and drinks on her own, same with food. If you dont want to do that you can always just mark her water dish and see if it goes down. Dont know what to say about the poo...
