The video below shows the two parents trying to feed the chick shortly after it hatched. They are trying to tear the food apart into smaller chunks so that it is easier for the chick to swallow. However, the chick was not able to take the food at that moment.

The second chick hatched at 9:54am and I actually captured that event on video! The beginning of the video shows the first cracks appearing in the egg and then the chick hatches with some help from his mother. After that, the mother eats the eggshells for the nutrients.
