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?

Get some pebbles that fit in the drinker rims - wash thoroughly - and
then put them in the drinkers
This way there is a "little" bit of water available to little beaks
but not water they can sit in
