This morning my little guy Kiwi and I had a breakthrough. The past few mornings he has taken only a little bit of food from his syringe and gobbled down his breakfast (yesterday there was almost NOTHING left in his dish and I gave him a good bit).
So this morning after a few good morning squawks, Kiwi settled onto the perch right where I put his food dish as if to say.."well...where's breakfast mom?" So I just made him a nice mash and he started eating right away all on his own!
We'll see how he is when I get home today but I think we may have just moved to one syringe a day!:)

Way to go Kiwi, thats great news it really is. When he's ready the handfeeding to stop he will let you know. :D Well done to you. That really is brilliant news.
