Making a Baby Chick Waterer | Live Free or Die: How to Homestead

we raise a lot of baby chicks here and
one really important thing is to make
sure that they have access to water and
to make sure that they can’t drown the
water so I’m going to show you today how
to make a chick water that is safe for
very very small chicks what I like to do
is use a shallow tray like this and then
use another container that will also
hold water so the first thing I’m going
to do is poke some holes in the bottom
of this container I’m going to place it
on the plate here and just make sure I
poke the holes below the top level of
where I want the water to be so now that
I have all my holes in this jug I’m
going to go ahead and put some water in
the tray and then I’m gonna fill this
jug up with water as well I filled the
jug all the way up and I’m gonna put the
cap on and then set it down in the water
when the water level gets down to the
holes the water will refill the tray
back up all right let’s get the chickee
some water once it gets water
