What do I mean when I say co-parenting you ask? When you allow the parent birds to feed their babies but you still handle the baby birds daily to help with socialising and to get them used to human hands. Initially I was thinking I would pull the baby out after 17 days and hand feed but I have no experience nor can I commit to the schedule of feeding every 3-4 hours. I also believe my female and male lovie will do a much better job.
So my question is, does anyone have experience doing this and did it make a difference with the bird being better socialised and not so scared of human hands?
Love to hear your thoughts on this, and in particular, if you have had any 'hands on' experience (pun intended).
Thanks in advance.
