So as I said I had 2 nest boxes and the male had bred with both females. After the fledglings left the first box (female must of died) the second nest the eggs hatched. But the female very seldom takes them in food! Occasionally the male and female will take a meal into them,then he will collect food and fly off to the treetops to feed the other chick(s). But female follows him around and it's like she has forgotten she has young. I have put food directly under the box but she doesn't take it and I'm getting very worried as can only hear a faint squeak coming from the box. Any ideas on what more I can do
