HALP! I just rescued a baby bird fallen from a tree and IDK what to do!!!

You haven't lived until you get accepted in a Flock. Nothing cooler than having a couple birds come and preen you.

Blue Jays can be pretty mean.

I remember walking to school in like february or march sometime snow was still melting. A blue jay was going to town on a robin's nest. It was acting freakishly fast so I went closer to the next. It started attacking my head and my fight or flight instinct kicked in and I sprinted to the edge of the road and just watched in amazement lmao. :O

I know! I can tell by his wings he is blue jay. Good thing the parents didn't see my little boy scoop him up!

nest*

I made him a cozy nest in a shoe box with a heating pad. He just ate again too! I can see it going down his neck now and it's not getting stuck, it's almost easier using my finger to feed him.

Yes. Ours is so mean. But its a hen, males are not so aggressive.

Mix dried Gerber rice or oatmeal flakes with water until loose. Feed every three hours with a eye dropper. I did this as a kid and they all lived to finally fly away.

put that fat worm in the blender :)

I'm sure all the poo fetish ppl would be all over that. *Runs to bathroom to vomit*

You need to put the bird back where the nest is. That is the answer. The momma bird will bring it back up to the nest. They can smell it and hear it.

They will not kill it as some animals do if the smell human on it. Birds don't care who touched it they just want it back. Put it in that towel and rest it under the tree. Momma will do the rest.

The baby bird needs to be kept WARM. Like 99 degrees. Heat lamp, heating pad (NOT TOO HOT) You can feed it SUGAR WATER for now. But most importantly, WARMTH.

I just raised 2 call ducks in and incubator.

It could be a robin, too. We successfully raised two that were thrown from a nest in a storm.
Try canned cat food, use an eyedropper. Use chuck pads under it, atop the blanket, so you can deal with the droppings.

Good luck.

Syringe and since a wild bird go for free stuff and mash up worms and bugs with a little water and syringe feed or go to pet store and buy baby bird food for syringe feeding I have raised and released many wild birds robins crows jays and my African gray that was rejected by parents all syringe fed after a couple feeding they will open right up when you put the tip near their mouth
Have to keep it warm too can't digest if not warm enough and no should not be letting it near your bird at all

Mush up peas. You’re going to have to feed it every couple hours at max. It’ll probably die.

Find wild life center and call for advice.

worms idiot...

not to warm either...

put it back in the nest if you can...

if its fully feathered put it down under the tree...

mom will come for it...

hate to say it....stomp its head

out of love, its not going to make it.

I dont know a bird that feeds its young peas...

It feeds them bugs and worms...

stupid fucking people...

its dead already with advice like this...

go on the internet fool and look it up for fucks sakes...

SUGAR will kill it...

Fuck off....

He was kept warm with a heating pad under his towel. He was up every couple hours wanting to eat. IDK how birds do this in the wild, they just barf every couple hours? they can't get food at night. He's pooping and eating like a champ, he even feels heavier. He's going to leave as soon as the wildlife center opens.

Here he is the superstar! Looks like a blue jay right? I think the feathers are similar. I got that egg off his beak.
