...As I was posting and searching on the BYC forum I learned that my waterer was at a low height, too low in fact that our chicks were having to bend down to get to their water source. One individual on the forum mentioned that I should raise it up so the nipples are about at eye-level for the first two days and then raise it slowly as they grow.

This is a before shot of our chicks before the adjustment. See how low it is?

Here's a shot of the waterer at eye-level. |

And here's one of our chicks enjoying the water.
