Thank you Hyacinth,Hyacinth wrote: ↑June 4th, 2019, 8:22 am I didn't see the start of the feeding, so unsure how much the chick was actually fed. Iiris seemed uncertain how to go about it, walking around the nest and trying from different angles.
Mom and baby will both learn.
Jenny, the eggshell on the left of the nest is the one from this chick. I saw Iiris remove it.
I had already thought that it is the shell of the hatched chick. Hopefully, Iiris will quickly learn how to feed such a little beak. At the moment she is still very nervous and many of the small pieces of fish fall into the nest.
Wish you and all the other viewers a beautiful day.
