Hi all, I'm new on here and could really use some advice. My pair of celestial parrotlets laid/hatched 4 eggs. They parented them well, and have now decided it's time to kick the eldest chick out. 3 of 4 of the chicks are able to groom/feed themselves, but the youngest still seems to need mum to feed her. The problem is. .. mum doesn't want to feed her and just attacks her :31:
Baby sits in the food tray, but looks hopefully at the older babies to feed feed her.

Any ideas? I have no experience in hand rearing. I don't think she's far off feeding herself. Is there any food I can offer her to try herself?

Thanks for any advice! :)
