I have a nipple waterer in with my chicks as well as the regular old mason jar waterer. I have had it in with them for more than a week but have yet to see one use it. I guess if I sat long enough and watched I would see it. I didn't put much water in it so I can't really tell by the water level. Plus I change it daily. How did you know that all of them were using the nipple waterer? Did you see them using it regularly?I started mine on nipples since day 1. Offered regular watered for the first days just to make sure they figure out the nipples.
