Hi rialize,


Too, there is no hurry on them leatning every thing right away...

Her pecking successfully takes most of the strain off of your needing to feed her, and, if she needs water, and likes it from you, then, that is a pretty easy one to do!

Lol...

You can always offer tepid water in a shallow custard cup or the likes, and, she would drink from that now if you are holding it for her, like you do the Nipple. Then, you can set it down and soon she will drink from it on her own.

Bear in mind, usually they get all their food and water form their parents untill they are around five weeks or so, or, whenever it is that they can fly well enough to accompany their parents on grazing forraging excursions to begin pecking and drinking on their own...and for them, there is a lot of meaning to being fed and given Water...

Glad to hear it all goes well...

Happy New Year...!
