Baby birds hatching and handfeeding Q&A 

Very informative and precise.

This is a great video! Glad you mentioned the various temperatures. Thank you!

Could u please do a video on dimensions and rain and other systems for your aviary I LOVE your channel and always impressed

Excellent video!!! Thanks.

Hey man awesome videos you make been following you for a little while now and always love watching your videos. I got a question i have 4 young parrot finches in my aviary and i heard when they fly out the nest you can better set them separate from the parents because they will chase them down. but if i do that they are 3 weeks old so they do not eat on their own yet do i have to handfeed them than myself?

Thank you so much. so helpful. Lost quite few chicks on tossing, will try to save the next ones

I found a wild birds egg (I’m not sure what it is but it looks like a cardinal egg?). I put it in my incubator with some quail eggs I had in there and it actually hatched this morning! I’m trying to figure out how long to wait before feeding, I keep reading to wait 6-12 hours?! Excellent and informative video by the way!!

I am very glad to watch your informative video ,thanks a lot dear🌺🌹🐦🌹

just got my first Gouldian finches today , saw your aviary amazing , going to use that as a reference something to inspire . i get alot of hawks and owls here in east orlando so ive been worried about aviary set up.

I sent a question on instagram but gonna try here also. A wild house finch built her nest on my porch, last night a stray cat attacked 3 times but they didn't get hurt. I brought the nest in, took it out early morning, and parents came back thank goodness, but a cat attacked again, sadly killed one of the baby birds. And it was stuck and bloody. Parents weren't feeding as often anymore and stopped coming, I ended up bringing the nest inside. They look like nestlings, small feathers but still a bit fuzzy, maybe 10 days old?? They're eyes are open but they control movement. There's no wildlife rehabilitation center near me, only one small veterinarian but only for dogs and cats. I know nothing about birds, I don't even have pets because I don't have the time. But I also don't want these little guys to die. What do you recommend? I did rush to the store to buy that katee formula powder to feed them. How do I know if they're full because anytime they sense movement they open their mouths now? Would it be better to feed them most dog food or hard boiled egg as it's what I've come across.. Just sounds wierd.

Muy buen video, vas a hacer uno sobre como usar la incubadora? Que modelo, temperatura, etc, sería interesante!

Such a helpful video. HELP: Friends gave me an abandoned UK Robin nest w/ 4 eggs in 3 days ago, so I put the eggs in an incubator. One’ had hatched this morning (tiny!). Question: can’t see any poops yet - when should I give the first feed? So appreciate ANY help/suggestions you can give me. 😊🌸

Your video is amazing! You are so knowledgeable and practical, well done.. I love the advice on the temperature control, but I never saw how you achieve that. Is that a type of cooler box or a special incubator, please excuse my ignorance, we just saw our first day old zebra finch baby and there are 5 more eggs to hatch . We h r so much to learn.

It's wat we call faith patience and percieverance n doing d job, GODBLESS!

Thank you. Humidity level after born and couple days after? 40 , 30 % ?

Last time I handfed chicks one of them had not developed a proper claw/foot and couldn’t walk/jump and kept bleeding. I noticed you both have napkins under the recently hatched ones and sometimes use nesting material like coconut fiber. When should I put them on the nesting material in the brooder? After how many days old so their feed develops naturally

Can you use kaster exact bird formula for any age of a bird? Or is it different for african grey birds

Hi, what should i feed one day old Love bird chick as i don’t have baby food available? Appreciate your earliest reply. Thanks!

I have a baby lovebird less than 24 hours old. He's eating but there is a little poop/feather fluff stuck to his butt... is that normal? What do I do to make sure he's pooping? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for posting great info!

Hi my son got a little one yesterday am doing my best to keep it a live

What type of incubator do you used

Very informative, nd so cute baby😍🐥🐣 Aanew Subscriber here 🙋🏻‍♀️

After 7 days!! At what temperature finches baby should keep?? Even after 15 days!! What temperature should be??

Once hatching is done , after how many hours of hatching we should start feeding ?

Hello! I hope you reply to this because it's an emergency. I have a baby finch that I'm trying to hand feed and care for since yesterday morning. I got a baby bird hand feed feed and a syringe of about 2 cc. It ate a little more than a 0.5cc yesterday before it stopped begging for food and I fed it the same way every 2 hours or so. And today, I've been trying to go on a hunch and stop when it stops begging or until the crop is full, whichever comes first. So usually somewhere close to 1cc. But that's the thing. Even when the crop looks pretty rounded to me, it will still beg and I don't know whether I should go on cuz I read that overfeeding can damage its crop perhaps permanently. From the looks of it, it's somewhere between 8-12 days of age, with pin feathers on its wing and everything. This is my first time ever hand feeding so I'm not sure how to go along with it. Also, what should a full crop look like? The baby's crop appears pretty round after me feeding it, but there's still space on the side parts of the same that is not filled with the formula, but I'm afraid to feed anymore cuz the crop looks very distended. Please help.

My baby conure was stuck in its shell this morning, I got it off but it was a little bit bloody before I began to work on getting off the shell, his crop was empty so my husband made him smile kaytee exact, but he has not pooped yet and ate a few times, I am concerned, can you shed some light.

I saved a blue jay egg they were getting eaten buy a squirrel I’ve been watching the nest then the next morning I looked out the window and the squirrel was in the nest eating the eggs there was only one left I put it under my lamp in the window it been a couple of day I hadn’t seen nothing inside the egg I thought it was not gonna make it but then I checked the next day theres a tiny little chick growing inside with its hart moving it’s so cute to see the hart moving around inside the egg, just a couple more days to go for it to hatch can’t wait to hold it in my hand and watch it grow up to an adult

Pls tell how many times I should feed them if the chicks are 10 days old I am gonna start feeding a few in a few days pls tell I need help 🙏🙏🙏

Can you help. I've a 4 day old zebra finch. Mum and dad wouldnt feed it. I started feeding today. It's been 24 hours and still has alot of food in its crop. It's pooing but the food won't go down. Do I stop feeding so the crop goes down please help or what can I do as I think I've over fed it
