How to take care of bird?

[Cowcel]

I found a little bird 5 days ago and im taking care of it. It cant fly yet i's most likely just learning to fly and it cant drink or eat alone I have to force its mouth to open and force-feed it insects that I find. Should I continue to take care of it or take it to some expert to care for him?

what kind of a bird is that?

idk tbh it's like a canarine but all black

Seems like you're doing a good job. He most likely you're his mother.

common blackbird perhaps?

nah he hides in dark places and bites me sometimes, he does like me scratching under his beak tho

He also starts chirping at night he might miss his parents

poor birdie

I read this:

Only feed when the bird is warm to the touch. Only feed small songbirds fresh insects, such as caught flies. Do not give earthworms, live maggots or any other food other than fresh, dead insects.

No, everything is black even his beak, eyes and legs. His legs are also shorter and have small feathers, he can't stand tho bc he's still young maybe

The "experts" have a good chance of euthanising it. You should try to return it to the nest. What do small birds even drink? Mother bird saliva?

thanks man i do feed him flies and some mosquitoes but i dont know how much he needs daily, i read somewhere he needs like but i know shit about birds. The problem is he wont eat alone I have to open his mouth and put the food there

I dont know where the nest is. I only took it because he was right next to my house and was afraid some cat was gonna eat it. When I first found it I left it outside somewhere safe for the night for its parents to find it but it was still there the next day

That doesn't sound good.

You think so? I was told to give it to some experts/vets (idk what they are) of the national history museum in my city

 

[Cowcel]

That doesn't sound good.

It might be because he's young and was used to his mother feeding him. It does seem weird to me too. It has survived for 5 days I hope he continues

Where have you been for 2 years, if i may ask ?

Forgot my password when the forum changed domains and found it today in a notebook

 

[Friezacel]

I know it seems obvious but do you keep giving him water ?

I see, nothing changed about your KHHV status ?

 

[Cowcel]

Yes i dont think he would survive without water for 5 day. I have to gently force its head near the water but he drinks it when thirsty

Sadly

Good luck with him, take care. I love birds, even though their hypergamy is worse than among mammals

Use a syringe.

 

[Cowcel]

Use a syringe.

For both food and water?

You think so? I was told to give it to some experts/vets (idk what they are) of the national history museum in my city

So you think I shouldn't take him there?

 

[Cowcel]

Thanks man

He also starts chirping at night he might miss his parents

babies usually cry in the night because they want their parents (YOU)

 

[Cock'nBalls]

I did this 10 years ago after coming back from school i found a small bird infront of me on the ground i almost stepped on it.


You make it swallow warm water with a syringue.

As for food, you buy a plain biscuits. You crack one and mix with water. You get a toothpick and use it as a spoon, and feed the bird the mixed biscuit with water mix.

Be careful it will try to push the toothpick down its throat so always take it back.

Also it will fucking shit everywhere and you have to clean its ass if poop gets stuck there.


1 month later you gotta teach it how to fly

Biscuits that humans eat?
It shits like 5 times a day idk if that's good enough. The last 1-2 days i saw it shit like 3 idk if that's bad

How do i teach it to fly I thought he would do it instinctively. I am trying kinda to strengthen its wings so it can fly

Yes plain biscuits that u mix with milk usually but mix it with water. Dont do anything with its wings if its young they are fragile just feed him.

Yes it will shit like 10 times a day

He hasn't shitted that much. He also doesn't eat anything by himself i gave him different types of food even birdseed he still won't eat them himself

Thank you for your help

 

[Emba]

Chew up and spit worms down its throat

 

[allDead]

Idk lol give it some wormz

 

[Cowcel]

I can feel his bones in his stomach and throat when i pet him. Is that normal or is he malnourished?

He also tried to fly today while I was asleep but didn't succeed and i found him under a car

You should take it to a veterinarian, boyo.
