    Ok, thanks! . I've been in touch with Charlie and he made me feel very comfortable with how things are going but I have some specific questions...

    Do you mix formula with the food that the parents are feeding the young..if intending to pull them at two-three weeks to home grow?

    When do you start holding/handling them. Do you wait till they are pulled from the nest?

    Should I separate Jellybean and Chip after taking the babies from the nest? I don't want any more mating going on.

    I appreciate any feedback, thanks!

    We always mix formula with the parents food when they are feeding.It makes it an easier transition when you pull them and begin hand feeding.
    We never handle the babies before we pull them as some bird species will stomp the babies once they are returned..Eclectus in particular.
    More babies are a for sure unless you separate them.It seems that once they have done it successfully once they will continue until your house is full of little feathered ones.
    If you do separate them you may still end up with eggs being layed...they will just be duds.She will tend to them and eventually give up and walk away..you then remove them.
