Hi! Try putting hardened pieces of coconut oil. To dose a little one with olive oil you'll need to use a cough syrup dispenser like for kids, and dispense a time amount on the side of the beak where it meets its face. Watch it drink and then give more . Try to give as much as possible. Also see if she needs stimulation to poop. Very gently massage around her cloaca. It should pulse after you touch it.
