Horizontal water nipple are a great solution for birds of all ages, including baby chicks. The nipples are made of stainless steel to keep the water clean and fresh.

They are easy clean and install.To install, just drill a hole using 11/32" drill bit at the side of PVC pipe, bucket or other containers you find available. If using a thin plastic like reused water bottle, 5/16" drill bit might be more appropriate. Wind some Teflon tape (not included) on the 11/32" threads and then screw the nipple into the hole with the washer. You can drill a hole using 11/32" and screwed them directly into PVC water pipe as long as they are on the sides, or use 1/8" NPT reducing tees (not included) with Teflon tape for round PVC pipe.
