Several baby kakarikis hatched about two weeks ago, and I'm ridiculously excited. They're pretty uncommon in my area, so seeing this many big, healthy babies is great.
They're starting to get to the age where I'd like to pull them for handfeeding. I've had experience with cockatiels and doves, but my dad has fed other species. I don't mind doing that, but recently I've heard of co-parenting. I honestly have no clue what co-parenting is. My father isn't familiar with the term either (most of his experience is from many years ago). How do you do it and what are the benefits? Would it work with kakarikis? Does it take more, less or about the same amount of time as handfeeding?
