How do i care for an orphaned baby bird?
This has info on baby birds: http://www.csub.edu/FACT/baby_bird_care.… When a bird is first found, it likely is hungry and dehydrated. You may make a quick food that will keep the bird alive until you can prepare a complete diet. The following recipes are for emergency use only and should not be used for more than a few hours since they are only “energy” foods, not “growing” foods. Mix 4 tsp. water and 1 tsp. sugar – OR 2 tsp. water and 1 tsp. white Karo syrup – OR 2 egg yolks and 2 oz. boiled and cooled Coca Cola. Feed the mixture with an eyedropper. Fill the dropper, poke it down the bird’s throat (past the entrance to the air pipe or trachea), and pump it in. Take care to keep the food from soiling the bird’s feathers. Once it dries, it will be very difficult to remove without harming the bird. If you can you should really contact a wildlife rehabilitater but there not always around when you need them.
