Thanks everyone for your replies, day 2 all is well, fid is about 3 weeks old and doesnt seem to eat a lot of formula but the crop is extended and i dont want to force too much food, im feeding about 4 - 6 times a day from a spoon, im a bit hesitant to syringe feed as im worried about maybe pushing too much food in or too fast, fid is squakey when i pick it up but its only its 2nd day from the nest and by itself so i guess its still adjusting and a bit frightened with all the change,
I guess you can never really handle them too much if you want to tame them. I will keep udates coming, thanks everyone for a warm welcome to this great site.

Hi Everyone

Squeak has been having a busy week, we have learnt to fly in that time all though a bit un coordinated we are getting better lol , we have learnt to eat seed and pellets on our own and are becoming a very independant little bird lol, heres a few more pics of squeak
and we just luv our bed lol

I know this post is old however i am having the same issue with my new birds .. one of them has a normal crop it would shrink in size just fine while the other has a very slow shrinking crop. i am also afraid of feeding it .. its always the one wanting more food then its brother...
What did you do to remedy this problem?
