That is a big foot for such a little eaglet!
I was watching a feeding a while ago, and while it's hard to tell with a refresh cam, I'm pretty sure I saw some bullying by the older one - my pics are on the other computer so I'll have to add them later, but it looked as if she was pecking at the younger, who then stayed down during the beginning of the feeding. The good news is that I'm also quite certain I saw the younger one being fed later, while the older one was relaxing after the meal. And I haven't noticed any aggressive behavior at other times. So I think this is normal young eagle behavior, and both will be fine.

this is the stage I love so much.....the little escapees wondering all over and stretch hopping along. These two look so healthy. Two weeks went fast. I love the little wing flaps also.
Mom is a beauty. Judy glad to hear that they are both being fed.

I'm watching a lovely feeding - both chicks are side by side, and Mom is alternating bites while they both wait their turn. I'm guessing the older one was having a grumbly moment when she attacked the younger one this morning - certainly not unusual as they begin to get their feathers.
It's also looking to me as if both chicks have nice full crops.

4:43 another feeding with both taking turns. (My computer broke, so I can't do s'caps on the one I've borrowed for now... )

Hope you get your computer back soon, eaglet999 - there are going to be lots of photo opportunities soon!
Here's today's slideshow - a bit of sibling rivalry at the beginning, but some nice peaceful feedings later - and really big crops at the end. And they are growing by leaps and bounds!

Hope you get it back soon, eaglet999 - I know I'd go through withdrawal without mine! 
I wasn't able to watch a lot today - here are some random s'caps
