What am i supposed to feed a baby bird that f ell out nest?

It is best if you don't feed it yourself. It can get stressed out and/or die. its best to call or bring to a bird sanctuary. Plus its illegal to take care of a baby bird without a licence. Do not touch the baby bird except in emergency or if its injured. Often the mother bird will come back and feed it. But if it has human scent, she will abandon it and it will die.


Mother lovebird rejects a baby.?

If, in very rare cases, the mother lovebird rejects one of her babies you are forced to hand feed. Handfeeding is the process of basically hand feeding them with bird formula specially designed for baby birds. However, handfeeding a baby bird at day one is not recommended as it is not getting it's mother's nutrients. Possible reasons for the reject may be that the mother thinks the baby is too weak, you peeked into the nestbox too much, you pulled the babies one at a time for handfeeding, etc.

Do baby birds die if you tuch their egg before they hatch?

You shouldn't move them because it could ruin their growth and don't touch them or the egg could break...so just don't touch the egg. If you did touch an egg in a bird's nest, you probably did no harm, but you must stay away from them. Human curiosity and small, delicate bird's eggs in the wild don't mix very well.
