yes on the syringe (CROP feeding which is through the tube directly into the crop) is sometimes necessary with vERY ill birds who temporarily are unable to feed themselves but it is always necessary to feed in such a way (with the exception of tube/crop feeding) so that the bird is able to swallow it itself.
Offer the yogurt/probiotic free choice and occasionally dip her beak in it... same with the feed (hopefully you can get the baby parrot/bird formula from the petstore and mix that in with it so it isnt completely dry) > both (not being dry) will also stave off dehydration.
for the water/electrolytes> just keep dribbling along beak.
