Nesting bird problem PLEASE help. I have no clue.?

My friend has a cannery who has a mate, and started laying eggs, but she kicked them out of the nest, this is before they got a mate for her, so to prevent nesting, when they did get her a mate, they removed the nesting box, but she has laid three eggs in her food dish.
And sitting on them. so they are probably fertilised.. im going to candle them next time i see them.
But how are they to prevent nesting in the future, with out taking away her mate, because she stresses now when they tried to separate them.
Also.. how they going to look after the chicks.
I have raised many birds before, but never seed eaters.
i usualy raise starlings, blackbirds, thrush. etc.
so my knowlege doest go to PET cannery’s. how will they raise them to be pet birds etc etc etc.
please help!
P.S I WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE TO ASK.
By ‘it’, do you mean your incredibly small, slightly bent to the right, penis?
Because if your were, i would gladly get an air gun and shoot ‘it’.

A friend of mine rescued a baby mocking bird from a dog. What is the best way to feed it and return it to wild

The local vet told her to feed it white gatorade mixed with water and we have been giving it bread. It’s wing was hurt, not badly. It is at the fledgling stage and I really need to know what would be best to feed it and also the best way to return it to the outdoors.

We found a baby bird- Help?!?

While my little sister was outside with her friend, she saw our cat carrying a baby bird in it’s mouth. She ran over to our cat, and made her let go. We put her in a box, with a heating lamp, and some bird food, we had from one of our previous birds. It doesn’t seemed to be damaged it can run, and has all it’s feathers, and it’s eyes are open. Here’s a small picture of it:

But we didn’t find any. We can’t bring it to a wildlife rehab center, or whatever; because we live in a super small city, and I don’t think there are any near. We also, can’t put it back into it’s nest, we don’t know where it is, our cat could’ve had it in her mouth for a long time. Before we start looking for where it could be, is there anything we could do, to try to keep it alive as long as possible?
Thanks.

How much $$ should I offer my friend to take care of my animals while I’m on vacation?

I’ve got 2 rabbits that need to be fed and watered twice a day, and 3 cats that need to be checked. And a bird to feed and water too. My dogs are going to be boarded. And water the garden in the evening.

I was thinking of offering her $10 per day. She only has to drive across town, but she has to come over twice a day. Is that a reasonable offer?
We live in a small town. It take more time for me to get in my car than it does for me to drive to her house.

The thing that will take the longest is to water the garden at night, maybe 30 minutes at the most.

I will not change my rabbit’s feeding schedule.

And I’ll be gone for a week.

I found a baby bird! So what should i feed it? PLEASE read the details. I want this baby bird to live :)……?

So i found this baby bird in my yard. it fell out of its nest. there was another baby bird that fell out of its nest about 5 feet away from it, but it didnt survive…. and its dead. so i took this baby in and put it in a converse shoe box. (with ventilation of course.) and so my niece named it peddy, cuz she was there with me. :) anyway, it was opening its mouth really widely cuz it wanted food! i didnt know what to feed it, so i called my *friend and she said the best thing to feed it was bugs. i dont have bugs. so she then said to try feeding him hot dog… i did and she took it really well and ate it. it was really cute!!!!…. so i’ve had it for half a day now…. but then baby peddy vomited the hot dog a few hours later after fed it to him, several times around the box. i then refused to clean that up and moved it to a different box. so now, i dont know what to feed him. other things that my friend suggested that i dont have chicken or turkey, i cant go to the pet store to buy it bugs, cuz i cant drive, and i cant feed him KFC or chicken nuggets cuz they have spices and preservatives! i asked her about feeding it bread, but she said it doesnt have enough nutrition to be its main food. i then asked about fruits and veggies, but she said that baby birds dont really eat those.

WHAT CAN I DOO?

please help, this bird has shown to be good and healthy so far.
and i want to help it back into the outdoors. :)

a question for the people with multiple birds?

i have a male budgie(butterbean).he was young when i got him. he’s almost a year old now.he tamed pretty quick and by now he follows me around the house and can say several words and phases. ive also got a 5 month old green quaker(apple).apple has not been sexed.butterbean really likes apple.apple mostly ignores butterbean. they hang out together sometimes but they do not live together.my question is can i get butterbean (the budgie)a friend?i want to,i think he would like one,but i have several concerns.male or female?i would like to get a female because it might be neat to breed them someday but i don’t want that to be in the real near future so is there any thing i can do to keep them from breeding?like don’t put in a nest box?and if i do that will she become egg-bound?also since i don’t know the sex of apple will he/she be more likely to fight with a male or female new bird?also will butterbean not like me if he has another budgie living with him?will he revert back to just bird noises and quit talking?any helpful advice would be great.thanks.
