I’ve put it in a shoe box with a makeshift nest and covered it with a glove for now. Its prolly only a couple of days old; it hasn’t opened it’s eyes and doesn’t hardly have any feathers.

where to sell birds?
I have a princess of wales parrot and a budgie but I can’t take care of them any more. Only feed them and cover up the cage at night. Where can I sell my pets? Also want to make sure that I’m selling my parrots to a better place. (I’d rather avoid selling them on the internet cause if I sold it to some dude in Texas or a place far away, that’s not gonna work for the birdies cause they go crazy on car rides) Does $180 for a parrot and a free budgie sound like a good price? Can’t go any lower than $180. So where can I sell the little guys?
BIG emphasis on not selling over the internet. I never trust the internet when it comes to purchasing or selling.

bird problems?
I have a budgie and a princess of wales parrot but I can’t take care of them any more. All I can do is feed them and clean their cage. I can’t spend time with them cause I’m gone most of the day. (school, duh). Another problem is that I can’t bring them into the house and possums and cats bang on the cage at night. Obviously, I have to give them to someone else, but who? Basically, the question is: What do I do with pet birds when I can’t take care of them any more? I really need good answers. Many thanks for answering!
my location: Westminster, California.

What kind of commitment is involved in purchasing a macaw?
I have loved macaws since I was a little girl. I’m 20 now, and getting ready to get married and move to Boston. I would eventually like to buy a macaw, but I was wondering exactly what I’ll need for taking care of the bird. How big would the cage be, will I need to wait until I live in a house vs. an apartment, what do I feed it, does it need exercise, etc.

How can I get my family to be more responsible? Examples listed below.?
I am running myself ragged here. My husband wants all these animals…ie: 2 dogs, 2 birds, a rabbbit and a horse. Although he takes care of the horse I am left with feeding, watering, cleaning up after all the other animals. I didn’t want pets to begin with…to me it’s an extra responsibilty I did not want to havre to take on. Another example my daughter wants a rabbit so after telling her she would have to water, feed and clean it’s cage….it always ends up me doing. She is only 5 so I understand if she forgets without being reminded but I end up doing it all. Im tired of it all and ready for some kind of change or I think the animals need to go. Another example I can tell him to clean up the dog mess and he says ok I will tomorrow or this afternoon and doesn’t do it, in the meantime if my 80+ yr. old neighbor says something to me and I mention it to my husband he usually gets it all cleaned up within a few hrs. or the next day. What gives?!?!?!?
I agree no 5 y/o is responsible enough to handle animal care of their own…I told my husband this….No-one listens…they live in the moment…not that these animals will be around for the next 15-20 yrs…I even went as far to telling my husband I spoke with a lady who raises bunnies and she told me the same thing, we should wait.
I am a parakeet owner . my birds had a baby. it was making sounds but today has stopped what does this mean?

How should I take care of my baby parakeets, when they hatch?
I’m very worried on how I should go about caring for my baby parakeets when they hatch, the hen is currently nesting her eggs, however in the past she’s laid a batch (1 hatched and died after a single day). I want to avoid the same thing from happening again, and I don’t have the heart to break the eggs like others who don’t want to go through the trouble do. The problem starts when the babies are first born. (about the first week or so) the mother doesn’t really know what to do when the babies hatch, and she just continues to sit there paying no attention to the baby at all. While I’m afraid to touch it since when they first hatch they seem so frail and soft, and I’m not sure if I should. I’ve bought a Nesting box for my hen, some bedding, and baby formula with a Syringe to begin the feeding, such as that I’ve seen on youtube. However I don’t think it’s possible to start feeding the baby birds 1-3 days out of the egg since their mouths are so small. What do birds eat when their 1-6 days old? When should I start hand feeding the birds? Should I take the hen out of the nest after the eggs hatch? How long should it be until I stop hand feeding the babies and introduce them to seeds? If there’s anybody out there who is an expert on baby Parakeets i plea to you, PLEASE help me!!
