My chicks started flipping their water dish over, and I didn't want a repeat of the last time I raised chicks where they got the cardboard wall of the brooder wet and then pecked their way to freedom. (Imagine chasing 10 3 week old chicks around the house. Yeah
)
I'd read here on BYC about nipple waterers, and I figured I'd give that a go. I found brass ones here in town and attached one to a bottle cap.
At first I worried they wouldn't figure it out and I'd have to figure something else out.
I shouldn't have worried.
The first one approaches the new shiny
The others come to see what's going on
Hey! It's WATER!
Make room! Make room!
I think I should have been more worried about them trampling eachother for a turn at the new 'toy'
