you can lead a chick to water.....

[patricknjaimieschicks]

But you can't make it drink!!!! Just got my 6 chicks home and they won't drink...been 25mins in the brooder, should I worry?

Did you dip their beaks in?

 

[patricknjaimieschicks]

Yes..a little bit, should I be more persistent? Felt like I was water biarding them..LOL

I'd try it again...plus try "pecking" at the edge of the waterer with your finger. If you can just get ONE to drink, the rest will follow suit shortly.
