Nestling with age 2-3 weeks old can be feed by hand feeding. Feed the instant food for nestling by dissolving in hot water. Use a syringe to feed 3-4 times a day (the syringe should be washed before use everytime). When feed the nestling for 3 weeks, the bird will be growing up and start eating by itself. The owner can teach providing a bowl of sunflower seed to the growing bird.
Remark
	The advantage of hand feeding the nestling is that the nestling will be tame and getting close to the feeder. Finally, the relationship will slowly grow into mutual friendship felt by both the feeder and the nestling.
