Drinking Babies

Raptor & Delta are *finally* eating good on their own. And slowly putting on weight!

PHEW!

I've been force feeding them for 6 weeks with zero weight gain and little interest in eating. It was a relief when Delta (especially) decided to start eating.

This morning, I filled up their water dishes and flicked my fingers lightly in the water until they started drinking.

Here's Delta. She weighs 14 grams now.


Raptor is at 8 grams and preferred to drinking water droplets off my finger tip until I put him right on his water bowl and flicked my fingers.
