Help help help! BABY BIRD?

Posted on July 6, 2011 by admin| 7 Comments

ok so i put the bird in a box thing a tree , no mother, where i found it no mother, i looked everywhere for the nest!
and i cant find it!
THEN the box that it was in fell out of the tree! i put it in!
then when i tried to put it back in, it hoped out and ran to another place!
it has feathers but cant fly!
IS THIS THE RIGHT THING TO DO?
should i just leave it and maybe its going back to find its nest?
no animal shelters care for them i live in the UAE i thnk its a sparrow…
btw birds have a very weak sense of smell.. so the mother would accept the baby back.
i feel afwul its just sitting under this pot thing…

During a wind storm, this dove/pigeon (baby) fell out of its nest and the nest is gone. But the Parent birds are still hanging around. I put the baby bird in a box and the mother bird went down to it, fed it once or twice, and then just watched it. I went out there a few times to check on it.
And now only the father is out there not near it just sitting in the tree. the baby hasn’t eaten for more than 8 hours. I’m scared and i dont want it to die. What should i do. i have this cage that i put it in and it doesnt have a top to it, i thought that would work that way it cant get out and the parents can still get to it. will that work.

Found a baby bird with larvae like things borrowing inside it…?

Posted on November 23, 2010 by admin| 3 Comments

We have a nest in our barn and there were lots of babies in it. Then I started finding them on the ground, dead. They looked like something had tried to eat them. Then I found one the ground still alive. When I picked it up, it had these larvae, worm things in it. They were like the size of a bean and borrowed into different places in it. I know I’m weird, but I spent like 45 min. trying to get them all out. There were like 8 of them in this tiny bird. I put the bird in a box with towels and put it on our warm dryer in the mud room. It’s still alive this morning, but now I don’t know what to do with it. I really want to know what those things in it were. It’s was gross, but interesting. Also, will the vet take it? What could I feed it? I’ve tried to google it, but come up with different answers. Thanks!

Baby Bird found in yard need immediate help! (urgent!)?

Posted on September 18, 2010 by admin| 4 Comments

I found this baby robin on the ground below its nest it didnt look quite right. Its mother was feeding it so i just hoped for the best. I researched online and it described it as a hedgling. A bird that will jump out of its nest to begin to fly. Sadly, this bird seems far too young and weak to fly anytime soon. On day 2 we discovered the mother bird was gone. So I fed it (bread dopped in milk or water) and it ate hungrily. I also got it too drink some water while feeding it. I put the bird in a box of hay (WITH MY GLOVES ON) so not to put a scent on the bird. And the mother bird came back with a worm in its mouth! so now the baby (who i named baldwin =]) is in a box and its mother gets close to the box. But doesnt get in! Please help me find a way to get the mother to take care of baby baldwin!!!
-thanks
boy i feel terrible now =[
