When do my chicks start to drink?

[Rory the Chicken]

we had 6 araucanas hatch today and they are currently in the brooder. they have learnt how to eat but not drink. how long before they do start to drink and what can i do do in order to encourage them to drink. i have already dipped their beaks in.

Repeat the beak dipping, they should start drinking soon....
