Hi. I live in NH and I want to plant some (not too big) bushes that the birds will like and will help feed them during the winter months. Any ideas?

How to help my cockatiel trust me!!!!?
I have an male albino cockatiel named about 9 months and a tamed 1 years old hand-fed female normal gray coco. I purchased blizzard from a breeder who said give him time he’ll come around etc.. and I got Home and put him in with coco b/c she had this weird scream for attention all the time. I first open the box and he draws blood from me and then every time I attempt to work with him he gets crazy and flies all around, and bolts at me right out the cage and runs crazy all around the floor and Attempted to get him with a Towel and if you even touch him the wrong way his wing bleed. I have had him for like 4 months and hes out of control he and the female get along to some extent and my girl just laid 3 eggs and is sitting on them, but they are fertile and my mom said you never know what happens when the cage is covered at night and they don’t get along so how could they have mated. He also when the female leaves the nest tried to go in and just rolls the eggs around and does not know what he is doing then the female hisses and attacks him. This is ridiculous this bird is the worse bird ever he hisses and never gives you a chance he runs and shakes, I am wondering what those ppl did to him that raised him.
can broiler chickens be fed duck feed?
this would be for a starter and grower/finisher, its non-medicated. also, if my birds are sprayed for coccidosis can they have prolean in their food? most specilists say no.
can and should i transfer a baby budgie chic?
ok so i breed budgies i have been for about 2 years now i have an out door cage and it had 3 budgie pairs in it, some idiot opened the cage and let one of my male budgies out when that happened i took out the female so she wouldn’t harm the other nesting pairs young, then i found 2 massacred budgie babies about a week later so i took out the other pair and put the remaining hen back in the out door cage with the breeding pair, then today i went and checked all the birds i looked in the nesting box and the female that has the 1 remaining baby and there was blood spread all over the nesting box and on the baby budgie and all over the mothers face, so should i and can i transfer a baby chic??
Does the way an animal is treated affect what you eat!?
I think I seen it on 20/20 or Nightline but they were showing how they make fragau(dunno how you spell it but Duck liver)They force feed them poor birds to fatten up the liver before they off them.And they were also talking about KFC and how some of the farmers tourture the chickens before they off them too.Personally I feel bad for the birds BUT at the same time they’re gonna die anyway,so I’m not sure where I stand on that matter.Does this affect what you eat?
I found a bird, help?
I was outside trying to get the coffee cup that rolled under my car when I noticed a little bird. I thought it was odd that she didn’t fly away, and soon discovered that she was unable to fly. She can flap her wings, but she can’t get more than two feet off the ground, and not for more than a few seconds. I couldn’t find a nest nearby, so I brought her in the house. She’s in a box with some water. I’m unsure of what to do in order to take care of her, does anyone have suggestions on what I could do to take care of her, or a place I could take here where she could be properly cared for?

a duck showed up in my yard and has taken up residence under my deck- I can’t ID him?
Larger dark brown/black body – green mallard head – white softball size crest on his chest – No other mallard markings – he is not a small size duck – I live in Northern Michigan and it is still not very warn yet. No other nesting birds have hatched yet. Has been hanging around about two weeks now and has gotten to the point I can feed him from my hand. He will come up to me wanting to be fed. Can wild ducks and domestic cross breed? Does not appear to be injured -although I have never seen him fly.
