Ask advice, how to raise this young bird?

Feeding very small birds requires two main points:

1) thermal insulation

Even in hot weather, a bird without feathers is afraid of cold, so make it a nest made of towels or cloth, and keep it dry and cold if it gets wet.

2) Feed regularly

Very small birds eat it almost every two hours. They have a strong digestive ability. They should be fed high-calorie foods rich in protein, such as live worms and egg yolk mixed feed.

Then use half of the boiled eggs, add appropriate amount of water and cod liver oil, mix them evenly, suck them in clean plastic bottles, and feed them to birds, 1-2 hours.

Feeding chicks artificially can be made into paste with water such as bean powder, cooked egg yolk, green vegetable leaves, minced meat, cod liver oil and calcium powder, and then picked with bamboo sticks. When chicks open their mouths and beg for food, feed can be quickly delivered to the birds' mouths. Because chickens eat a lot, usually from 6 am to 6: 30 am. First feeding, last feeding at night 19: 00. Feed every l ~ 2 hours at first, and every 3 ~ 4 hours after 7 days. Then you can feed the birds according to their mouths and calls. In the meantime, if the chicks can peck off the residue and eat it, they can put the feed aside and let them eat it themselves.

In addition to rich nutrition, artificial feeding chicks also needs to have some basic knowledge. When raising birds, don't forget to feed them. If you don't feed them all day, it will inevitably lead to starvation of birds. The feeding time of suckling chicks should be dispersed, and remember not to overfeed at one time. There is enough water in the food of suckling chicks, so be careful not to give them extra water. Young birds have poor cold-resistant and warm-keeping ability, lose their parents' love, and are prone to illness and even death. It is necessary to take corresponding warm-keeping measures when raising artificially. Put some feathers or cotton wool under the nest and cover it with a thin layer of cotton wool at night, but pay attention to ventilation. With the abundance of feathers and the increase of temperature, the bedding in the nest will gradually decrease. If the temperature drops significantly, you can hang a 25-40 watt light bulb in the cage and put a layer of black cloth around the light bulb. While keeping warm, we shouldn't let the young birds overheat.
