Female bird died with chicks?
My parakeets laid eggs awhile back and 3 hatched, the chicks are about 1 month old, today i found the female parakeet dead the male is feeding them but i’m NY sure if he feeds them as well as the female i need advise. And i’m wondering if i could put another female parakeet with them to feed the chicks. Right now the male is in the nest box with them. What should i do i’m really sad about the female but i’m also worried if the chicks will survive please help me
it found some baby birds, all dead but one :(?
i was opening my shed today and i found that a nest next to my shed had been ripped off and the baby birds inside were thrown out on the ground, all were dead (there were 4 of them all together) but one, the 1 that is alive is in a cardboard box that has an old birds nest from a previouse cat attack, the nest is all together, the bird is sitting inside, with a heatlamp shining on the side of the nest to warm it up, not directly on it, but my question is how often should i feed it? and what? i wound some worms in my backyard and fed it 3 of them, just little tiny ones, about 1-1.5 in long, it gobbled those up strait away. then it pooped in my hand. (i washed my hands with soap befor and after i touched the bird thank you). the bird seems active, it almost stood up, rolled around onmy hand, shook its head and opend its eyes. so what should i feed it and how often? and yes i know its tecnically “illegal” to care for a wild bird.

Baby Bird Help! I don’t want it to die!?
Early today 5 pm ish I found a baby bird you know like those brown birds that fly around in the LA area well anyways we left it alone and my mom said it was okay to bring it in because 8:36pm and the momma bird has not come(it was very still against the wall I think it was cold ). What can I feed it until its old enough to fly and how long might that be? I have it in a box with tissue as padding.
Warrior drank water from a syringe but will not eat the mashed up dog food.
Warrior’s got feathers but its a thin layer not thin thin it’ll freeze but barely enough to keep it warm.
If later on today should I put Warrior back outside will the momma bird take it back? I think I know where it fell out of but what if that’s not its nest is it risky to put it back in since it was near my front door and not the orange tree? Also, I haven’t heard it cry at all and its been with me constantly is that bad? because it would open its mouth but no noise would come out.
Humane way to rid Cat of hanging around my feeders.?
I love cats I have 2 myself strictly indoor. I have a bird feeding station in my yard. I have not had any issues with predators but today I noticed a gray cat hanging around. I don’t have a fenced yard and its not an option to get one but wondered if there is any kind of safe humane repellant I could use to keep him away but not harm the birds or the chipmunks. I can’t use a water hose because it would make a huge mess but didn;t know if anyone knew of a repellant for cats but safe for the birds and chipmunks and something that won’t repell them.
How long since hatching day should I candle a lovebird egg?
My lovebird just hatched her first egg today! And I understand that they hatch a few more eggs later on in the week, is that right? I also noticed that my lovebirds hatched it inside the nesting box without nesting materials, is it alright? Should I put some in or put some on the cage floor and let them do it themselves. I also want to know how long since hatch-day should I candle their eggs, is it 5 days after the 3rd egg is laid, or 6-7 days after an egg was laid. And what ideal nesting materials to put, and what ideal food to give for these “parents-to-be”. It’s currently raining here every so often, like, every 3 and a half to 4 hours a day, sometimes strong sometimes mild. And in the morning it’s a bit chilly. We put the birds at our laundry room, it’s outside. . .the cage can feel the chill but they can’t feel the rain because our laundry room is under a roof at our yard… Is it fine to put them there? They could only feel the slight chill, is that ok? Or should I keep them in the house from now on?
Is it normal for a parakeet to sit on a 1 day old baby?
My bird`s eggs hatched today, and I opened the nesting box to see what I saw was real.And what I saw was that the mother was fluffing her feathers around the baby bird.Will it die? or she`s just trying to keep it warm?
