How many months does it take until a baby cockateil starts eating on its own?
My baby cockateil is 6 months old and i still have to hand feed him. He eats a little bit of seeds, but he still cries for the bird formula. Is this normal?

Know about hurt baby birds?
Ok, got a wild baby bird that has been mauled a bit. I’m holding it right now, wondering what in the world to feed it. My daughter told me to get baby bird food, but that means I have to drive a few hours because I’m so far away from an open pet store. I need to do something now because I think it’s hungry. Any suggestions?
What kind of birds do you think I will get in my bird boxes?
OK… You might get a bit bored reading all of this but…
Here goes..
I put my bird boxes up in mid – august. I have one near the eaves (facing east)
One half open fronted one on my kitchen extension ( east)
On on the back fence (west)
One in the hedge (south)
I was just wondering what type of birds I might get in them.
I have 2 cats but I am sure they cant get into them. 
Thanks.
I think i might get these (correct me if i’m wrong)
Oh and i live in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.
Blue tits
House sparrows
Starlings
Great tits
Blackbirds
And my Grandma lives down the road and she says she occasionally gets a coal tit in the garden.
I already have an old blackbird nest in the hedge.
Whew…
What types of fruits and veggies can you feed lovebirds?
We have two lovebirds and they layed five eggs, four hatched. The babies are five weeks old now and im wondering what foods to feed all of the birds. The parents are still feeding the babies (we take them out once a day to play with and we used to give them one feeding a day especialy the youngest who didnt get much food from the parents, he is doing just fine right now and is as curious as ever.) The parents, other than seed, will eat nothing but apple and treat sticks and millet spray of coures but i was wondering what to give the babies soon so that they will not be scared of any foods. they have eaten a little bit of banana before and millet spray and sometimes sit in the food dish with the daddy but when there on there own what foods can we feed them? I have done sooo much research on them and found so many diferent foods but i want to know some more. also can you realy feed them dry cheerios? The parents sure seem to like them i just want to make sure its all right for them.
I have just found a baby bird on the side of a path-?
I did initially take it home to give it a tiny bit of water as it is a VERY hot day- anyway i took it back for about an hour to see if the mother would come back but when i returned the bird was freezing (it has no feathers but they do look like they are starting to come out). Anyway i have taken it back home and put it in a box with paper towels/grass and some old nest that we found at the bottom of our garden- i have been feeding it every 20 mins since with mushed up dog food and the occasional bit of water- the bird definately seems to have perked up and has begun moving it head more and twitching and the last time i fed it it even made some noises- is there anything else i can do to make sure the bird has the best chances? i have read up on it but i just want to know if there is any more info? thanks x
- will it become dependent on me as its mother as i will be leaving home in a month – is this too soon?
48 hour bird egg…eating, caring, etc…?
So, you may have seen my last question about how i found a bird egg, that i do not know if it it a Robin or a Greckel. yes, i suppose you have, if not, well, then, keep reading. So, i have been incubating this egg for about 48 hours now. I DO know that it is ALIVE and growing. The egg has gotten a bit bigger since i last measured it (the day we found the egg). There were no birds nest around, not up in the short trees we have here…no where! the closest nest in in my backyard, in my BBQ pit, but i have been watching that nest since it was being built. there were 5 eggs the day before they hatched, and about 3 minutes after they all had hatched, i went outside and counted the chicks…and still 5! i know that i didnt miscount the # of eggs, there have only been 5, and no more, no less, since!
i have been rotating the egg regularly, and monitoring the size, and heat of the incubator…
my question is what i should do to prepair for the hatch.
once it hatches, its going to be hungry, right? so what do i feed it? i own 3 birds of my own, but, anyways, should i feed it parakeet fod for the first few “whiles”. i wont be keeping it as a pet, i am going to care for it until it opens its eyes, then its straight the ASPCA.
here are all my questions-
•what should i feed it after it hatches?
•BEFORE it hatches, what should i put it in? should i place it in a box, then back on the heating pad?
•what should i do to prepare for the hatch?
•do i need to find worms? or can i buy them from the fishing section at wal-mart?
•how many times do i need to feed it?
•what are good signs of health that i should be looking for?
•REMEBER, ITS A ROBIN EGG, WHAT ARE SOME THINGS THAT I SHOULD MAKE SURE THAT THE CHICK DOESNT HAVE?
thnkx soooo much! ♥
btw, i do know that it is alive, i have tested it. and that was a visual account, im not sure that it has gotten bigger. please do not try to mock my intelligence.
