I don't have to do that. She is still allowing them to eat off of her on her own, but she wanders away from them more often but always goes and checks on them.
She is a very good mommy and is always cleaning them. There are times when I come home that she would rather sit with me than them but I just go sit next to the box while she feeds them.
