I made myself a bucket nipple waterer (3 nipples) and am now wondering if I hang it too high. My chickens just don't seem to like that thing. They peck at it and soon give up. There are holes in the top so the water is flowing when the nipple is pushed, they just don't seem to get it. I hung it just above their head so they have to "look" up to peck at the nipple. Is that too high, should i hang it so it is right in front of their head and not above???? I really want this to work
Oh, it is the third day now with the nipples ......and they still have their regular waterer outside during the day (freeranging all day).
