The mom is alive but just lays with the eggs. We have seen the male go in the vent (we assume to feed her) but we can’t have the nest in the vent. I don’t know if there is a place that I can take them for a rescue, or what to feed her….. I just don’t want to let them die.
In Oregon it is legal to remove the nests of house sparrows, by the way. And I know how to secure it after they are out- that is not my question.
Well a baby bird fell from his nest and my mom freaked out and took it inside, she didnt want it to die. The mother is nowhere in site and the nest is too high for us to put the bird back in. We are trying to keep this bird alive, does anybody know what we should do or feed it? Is there any place we can take the bird to? Or should we just leave it out there? Please help.
The bird has all its feathers, probley the size of a canary. He is currently fluffed up and is closing his eyes, you hear a ticking noise from him every time he takes a breatj.
I mistyped, I ment to put down, “Breath”
I have now put the bird back on the ground, next to the tree where his nest is. From what I read, you people say he will stay on the ground for about 3 days untill its wings get stronge. Hopfully, the mother will still care for it.
Thank you for all your help!
Okay, so my yellow budgie laid eggs. So i moved her to a different cage with her nest box. First she was sitting at the end of the nest for a few hours, Then came out of the nest. Then she did the same thing, but she didn’t sit on them. It’s been a month since she laid eggs. So a month before, she sat on them for 24/7. ( moved her to different cage + place because bad enviroment. also moved other birds. ) Anyways why isnt she sitting on them?
It looks somewhat like a finch and it seems it already knows how to fly. I’m not too sure if it fell from its nest but there were no nests around. Now, what exactly should we do? We’ve been feeding it tiny pieces of bread made mushy with water. Is this acceptable and if not is there a place we can take it?

I have had a blue bird box in the same place for over 5 years. Now this year, we cannot leave either of our cars outside during the day without out the blue birds attacking the mirrors.
Unless some other solution works beforehand the bird box will come down after the nesting season. I like the blue birds but not that much.

I’m watching my friends Quacker for the summer. She’s a very friendly bird around Mike, and was fine around me when he was near. But now that she has been relocated to my place she’s becoming impossible. I can’t reach into her cage to change her food or water. When I do, she charges at my fingers. I’ve already been bittin a couple of times. she has clamp coop cups so I have to reach in her cage to feed her. She’s smart and figures out how to undo her toys from the cage, so they just fall to floor. When I try to pick them up and replace them, once again my hands are her target. I’ve tried letting her out ontop of her cage to distract her so I can get her food/water/toys. I’ve had little success. She starts flying around the room, running into stuff (he doesn’t clip her wings) Then I have trouble getting her back into her cage, or she sees what I’m doing and comes back in. My friend is doing an internship in a remote area with no service so contact is not possible. any suggestions?
