On a Dendrobium, the keiki is typically found sprouting along the length of the cane or from the end of the cane. This is induced by the accumulation of growth hormones at that point, either naturally, or by the application of keiki paste.
I don't think your keikis has anything to do with flowering. I would think flowering is a light issue. Put the Dens together in the sunniest spot asd see what happens. A keiki will bloom at the same time as the mother and makes a beautiful plant, one day.. Ask in the Florida group what everyone else is doing. I have eight in bloom now. I even repotted and the buds didn't drop.
