I am building some new brooder pens for my bw's. I am trying to make it where I don't have to get in the pen as much if ever when I have to feed and water them. Has anyone used water nipples for their chicks?

For my big birds, I have a 5 gallon bucket with 4 nipples on the bottom of it and that works pretty well. It is very clean and I don't have to get in the pen to add water to it. I just have 2" pvc pipe that goes in to the top of the buck and I fill it from outside the pen. I would like to do something similar for the chicks but I am not sure if they would be smart enough to drink from the nipple of not.
