Poll- nipples or no nipples?

Done both, nipples win. The regular watering systems get filthy instantly. I've had my hens on the nipples since day 2, with no supply issues. Just make sure you have a hole in the lid or wherever (above the maximum water line) to prevent a vacuum from forming. Good luck.

I have a big bag of em - I just drill a few holes in the bottom of a milk or pedialyte bottle, add the nipples and instachick waterer! No more nasty shavings and poo water and the chicks are all 5+ weeks old so they must be getting something out of em.
