My male and female Cockatiels recently conceived an egg 3 days ago and the other yesterday. I am just uncertain of why they are not in the nesting box all the time to incubate their eggs. Whenever i open the cage both of them come out of the nesting box or cage and play with me. But sometimes one goes in to sit on the eggs. will the baby birds die in the egg if their parents are not constantly incubating them?

bird? What should she feed it, how often, what should she keep it in etc. I told her just to put it back in its nest, but she already took it home. PLEASE HELP!!!
a nest formed on my porch about a month ago. my brother wanted to observe the birds, so we didnt mess with them. its very intesting to watch these birds, the 3 eggs hatched and now theres 3 baby birds in the nest(there about a week and half old). since the birds got bigger, yesterday my brother took them down from there nest and put them in the yard so they could walk around, and he fed them a worm. and now, the mother bird doesnt come anymore at night to sit on the babys and keep them warm. basically my question is, did the mother abondon them because my brother touched them and stuff. only the father comes to feed like once or twice a day. did the birds smell my brothers scent, and ruin their relationship, and will the mother like “disown” them because of what he did??

yesterday morning we found an unfeathered little bird, on the ground with no nest in sight
we have been feeding him crushed up worms and he poops/urinates-whichever you want to say-regularly
but he is trying to stand and I am pretty sure his leg is broken
because it stays tucked under him and he doesn’t move it, but he is fine if I touch it
is there anything I can do for his leg until I can get him to a professional??

I live in Boston. I have a mourning dove 3 weeks ago build a nest on my airconditioner. The male and female were a great mom and dad. They took turns sitting on and feeding the baby birds for the past week. I thought there were 3 in there, but when I looked today..only two. The mommy dove was on them all day until about 2 this afternoon when I saw her fly off. She is still not back. The 2 baby birds are up there snuggled together and are breathing. Will the mommy come back? I had a birdfeeder on my deck and she was eating the seed today. I am concerned about the babies, but don’t want to touch them in case she comes back. I don’t know why they would take off all of a sudden. There are not any predators as they are on a 3rd story AC and sheltered by the roof overhang.
Any suggestions or help would be great!
