How do those of you who handfeed keep your formula warm during the
feeding process?
When I feed one or two birds, I have no problems--I put the food in a
custard cup, and set it over a coffee cup full of HOT water. It acts as
a "double boiler" of sorts and keeps the formula warm during the
feeding.
But now I'm feeding four conures who are in the "dawdle and look around"
stage of eating. The four of them eat almost 3/4 cup of formula at a
feeding, and that's too much to fit in the custard cups I normally use.
I've been just mixing it in a coffee cup, or a small glass. The food is
getting cold before they all get to eat, and I HATE re-warming it in the
microwave in the middle of a feeding. But my only other option is to mix
a new batch for every baby, which takes FOREVER, and when I run home on
lunch from work to feed them, I don't HAVE forever!
I need suggestions for keeping handfeeding formula at approximately 107F
long enough to fill four slow-eating babies. Help!
