I have added two new measures for model validation:
percent failure after N drops
percent failure after N drops+misses
I have run the model with and without chick lateralization, and to my delight, the chicks are more successful at feeding with lateralization. I also know that my initial idea of parent active response to chick lateralization (switching fish orientation if the chick drops the fish some number N times) does not have any noticeable effect on chick success.
I will soon be adding new ways for parents to actively respond to chick lateralization based on memory of previous feeding attempts.
