I have day old baby chicks, and keep finding them soaked and in the baby
chick waterers. Every hour, I check them and cycle them through the
incubator to dry them and warm them while they get back their strength.
How
do I keep them out of the waterers until they get big enough that they
dont
do this anymore?

My chick waterers have only a half inch trough around it for the chicks to
drink from so they are never in danger of falling in it.
What are your chick drinkers like? They sound dangerous for your chicks; if
they can get soaked in yours the drinkers are too big for them.
