I was searching how to make a bird formula at home and this just saved a life

[@paradiseaviary]

Comments like these make my day ! Glad the video helped out. Good luck with the baby bird your handfeeding.

IKR!! My baby birds came out of their nest early, and are refusing to go back in

[@SheheryarKhanCreator]

A baby just fall out from nest and I'm worried what to feed him

[@Seungberry_InTheBuilding]

@@SheheryarKhanCreator go to your local pharmacy and ask for a syringe, put this formula inside the syringe And you might have to force feed the baby, but the baby will eventually eat eagerly I know this from being an experienced bird owner

please take the baby to a local wilderness rehab center if it really is a baby! it might just be a fledgling, which is in between a baby and an adult and is able to move around with some feathers growing in.

My dad just cut down a tree that we didn’t know had a nest, so now we have 4 bald babies and I desperately want to save them. I will be watching tons of your baby bird videos, thank you. Making the formula as I type. I’ve never taken care of a bird before let alone a little hatchling, I’m scared

Hey , again a similar story. I was renovating my bird shed to start with finch keeping after a break from bird breeding for a few years. I left an unnoticed gap under the door and my hen zebbie who was sitting on 5 chicks between 9 and 15 days old got out and the cock abandoned the chicks by the next night. I have bred parrots for years and have a little experience in handrearing bigger birds like conures Senegal’s love birds and cockatiels so i thought i would have a go at saving the little chicks as it was my fault they had been left and would die. I used your formula to get the first feed into the little ones and ultimately saved their lives. They were gone listless and lethargic till i gave them your recipe of food. I managed to get a tub of hand rearing formula and they are now starting the weaning process. Thanks loads for this wonderful video. I have two little videos of me feeding the chicks the first after 6 days and the second 3 weeks later, Monday last week. You might get a kick out of seeng the little ones you helped save 😊 the little videos are on my “channel” (its not really a channel just the two little videos of the baby zebbie feedings. 🤷‍♂️😊

My vet told me never give egg to a sparrow which would destroy their digestive system. You can give good quality of kitten cat kibble . you boil water and let it warm and put some kitten kibble with chicken and wait till the kibbles got soft and observe water . You can feed the baby sparrow with it which I’m doing it now. I use tweezers and cut the kibble in 2 or 3 pieces and gently give one by one to the baby. I also mix it with the boiled drinking water ( to have a sterilized water) and givi it with a injection ( take of the needle ofcourse) . So that gives the bird water and the minerals she needs. I feed them in every 2 hours , sometimes even in 1 hour they get hungry. I don’t sleep however worth it for their lives. The other important thing is to make them feel that they are in their nest. And be aware of their body temperature. I don’t use hot water bag because I’m scared if I can’t control the heat. So I use stones which I warm them in the owen. And I replace them at the corners of their box. And make sure they have an organic box with air holes. After I feed then I slightly cover them and they feel at home and sleep. I check the heat in the box to make sure they are ok. And also I put soft toilet paper pieces where they sleep , it’s easy to collect when they poop. They poop when the mother is there because in nature, mother collects it when they are pooping. Very strange. You can find videos of it. So I try my best to do it in their own nature. This is my first experience and I wanted to share it with you. They are 7 days old. I hope all the best to you all

[@rossy2900]

Hard boiled eggs are good for any baby bird! As long as it's moistened and easy to digest. It contains a lot of protein and my baby seems to me doing fine with his homemade cocktail!

[@hibee2k11]

Yes I agree. There’s also breeds of birds that don’t get regurgitated food from hatch either. The mum and dad bring back small insects for them. I wouldn’t feel comfortable giving them formula tbh

[@cherylmockotr]

Thanks for the correction... I'm hoping to care for a sparrow that my cat had brought in the house. There are no wounds UT I think a wing might be broken or out of place, as it's limp. How did your baby sparrows turn out?

[@corpsertag5967]

Mother knows best what to feed her babies and keep the nest clean by eating off baby 💩. They feed their babies with insects, grasshoppers, grapes, berries, etc. I don't know how they do it, but it's a treat to watch how bird parents raise their chicks with utmost care until they are able to fly as good as the parents. Surely birds have evolved a long way to be able to prove that they are the most responsible parents in nature, besides majority humans.

[@timmytimmymit5607]

Kitten kibble is the best food for baby birds or nestlings but it has to be semi- moist.

thanks soo much I been looking for something like this

[@RealSimsHouse]

I've been looking for easy formula & caring methods for a bit, this is the best one. I don't even know if ill need it but I wanted to be ready. I have a bird that has nested in my roof. It in a position that I can't even see the nest, but some heavy wind blew an egg out & it rolled down & landed in front of my porch. I don't want to try to put it back because the mom could reject them all, & I couldn't see/reach the nest even if I wanted to... there are no cracks or visible damage to the egg, so I'm hopeful it survived the fall. I figured it wouldn't hurt anything to try to save it. I put a heating pad in a empty fish tank & used the bottom of a Pokémon ball & a sock for the nest... I hope that will suffice. Thank you for your video. ❤

The mother bird would not reject the eggs, that is just something people say.

I was mowing my lawn and found a bird nest on the ground. Started mowing again and saw a baby bird. Almost mowed over him. Thought he was dead but I saw it breathing. Before I saw your video I gave him a few drops of water as I thought he was dehydrated it’s been hot here and he was laying out in the sun. I made formula like you said and he won’t eat but I’ll let him rest and try again later. The water really perked him up (a little bit).

[@user-rx7iu1bj8u]

かわいいねぇ

[@sithlordhibiscus9936]

I used chopsticks. Lol. They sort of mimic the birds beak when you have to readjust your grip on the food, which in turn softens it. It also Mimics how birds can’t so easily chop things up or manoeuvre as finely as we do. Maybe they think I’m a bird. I found insects btw. Worms, berries, stuff they’d eat normally plus yoghurt and a few random things because they eat anything. I used a syringe for water if I couldn’t find wet clumps of roots to wring, a dewy leaf, etc.

[@Myoldfloridianhome]

I have a question. I love your channel I studied yours and others and I hand commercial formula left from my cockatiels. I hand-fed snd raised my 2 baby cockatiels from 2 weeks old up . We rescued a newborn baby maybe 2 days old that was either ejected from a nest or fell from a nest . I even was in contact with a lady I met on Tik Tok that rescues wild birds . I only had a little commercial food left so yesterday afternoon I ground up really fine oats and mixed the dry oats with the rest of my dry commercial formula. . I ordered more formula from Amazon and was waiting on it . The bird seemed to do just fine with the mixture . I had Frances Hope in a bed lined with fleece blanket on a cardboard box and the box inside of a big clear plastic box with a heating pad on low . I checked it frequently. I gave her the last feeding at 2 am this morning . I had to sleep , I checked on her at 4 am she was very dead . I’m praying it’s nothing I did , I’m praying it wasn’t the oatmeal . I made sure the consistency was right . I’m not sure if she was sick and maybe I didn’t know or if the fall injured her or what . But oatmeal is sticky and drying and I had the consistency right , I just pray it wasn’t the oats I mixed in the formula. My husband went out to bury it , I just couldn’t. All lives are so valuable, and I believe God wants us to be kind to helpless creatures . The bird was going to the bathroom a whole lot , this morning when I found it dead there was no bowel movement. When you rescue a wild baby it’s around the clock care and feedings , so much responsibility and work . If you think the oatmeal killed it then maybe my story will help . I didn’t overfeed it either .
