sounds like a joke, but it is a serious answer, put Tobasco Sauce in the feed, they will start laying eggs in a couple days.... and drink water.
Their tongues can make a spade shape that helps keep the milk on their tongue then pull it back like a draw bridge then goes down their throat.(Important notice: Cats are lactose intolerant so when they have milk they feel sick so best to keep with water.)
bantam chickens eat the same stuff as regular chickens such as corn, layer pellets or mash and of course bugs! as baby's bantam chickens may need to be on mash longer then the regular chickens and you will have too show them how to drink by dipping their beak in the water dish gently.
chick has dried out completely and is fluffy, you can lightly tap your finger in the water and it should instinctly know how to drink. i also hold the chick whilst dipping it's beak into the water as soon as its ready to be moved into the incubator. If you are hatching via broody hens, dont worry, the mother will teach its chicks to drink! hope this helps
yes because I did it and they seemed to like it. Chickens need constant access to water, so yes leave the water out for them at night.
Chicks need a continuous supply of fresh clean water. Each chick will drink about 1/5 liter of water every 12 hours depending on conditions. In a hot brooder box or in extreme hot weather they will drink as much as 1/2 liter each every 12 hours. It is best to keep the water supply fresh clean and plentiful at all times.
no
No.
Yes Water is basic to all life Chickens need a source of fresh clean water at all times even in the winter.

Around a couple of months
Chickens do well in the summer as long as they have plenty of fresh water. You do not need to give them any kind of special treatment during the summer. They can be kept as usual. But there water will need to be refilled more then normal
They get much of the water they require from the food they eat. When rains do occur they will drink as much as they can from standing puddles as they may not get a chance to drink liquid water again for months.

From the ground they suck the water with their beaks.
My body does not crave eggs when hungover. It craves marijuana. Eat something, drink about a liter of water and take a pain reliever the night before, and you won't be hung over the next day. ;-)
a bowl!
