Or should we go to a pet place?

I do not have a wildlife thingy near me. I don't really know when to feed theme, I know to feed them every 2 hours but other than that what should I do? I'm sorry.

What is the best way to take care of a baby robin? Two days ago my husband found a robin's nest under the hood of our van. We weren't able to save the nest, but we saved 2 of the robins. They were around 3 days old and now just opened their eyes. We built a nestbox with hay and paper towels and are keeping them in our hedgehog room where it is 80 degrees. I've been feeding them every 20-30 minutes during daylight hours. They are eating moistened high quality cat food that my hedgehogs eat with natural ingredients. So far, they have been doing well. I contacted the closest Wildlife rehab center yesterday, but I haven't heard back from them yet. If anyone has any helpful suggestions, I would appreciate your advice. I completely expect that I will get a response from a professional and I can not and won't release them back into the wild myself. I am due to have my second child in less than 2 weeks, so I am only asking about what should be done until I hear from the wildlife center. Believe me... I have many years experience caring for orphaned animals and I'm not asking for advice that goes against the laws, regulations or safety of the animal. I just want to be sure that I'm not going to hurt the animal until I am able to get it to a someone who can better care for and release it. Thanks! :) The wildlife center called and they may be able to take them in tomorrow. I have a good relationship with my vet, but he doesn't take them in. I guess I will just wait and see. Someone from the wildlife center came to pick them up and told me I did a good job with them and they were going to continue to do what I had been doing. Evidently moistened high quality cat food is a good diet for them.

Caring for baby Robin nestlings.? Yesterday I found a nest on the ground with 3 robins eggs in them. I know that your supposed to leave them there because there mother will still care for them. But shortly after finding the nest, I found a female robin who was dead (She was less then 3 feet from the nest). And it was almost dark out so I took them inside. I kept them in a showbox with a towel in it and a heat lamp and made sure the temp stayed at 100degrees. I also put I small tin of water in there and covered the eggs and water with plastic so it would stay humid. the eggs were still alive when we found them (They were quite warm and I could feel them moving inside). Anyways, to get to the point, 2 of the 3 eggs have since hatched. I've been feeding them every 20-40 minutes-depending on if they are hungry and gape at me with there mouths open- using baby bird food and a small syringe, and it's been about 48 hours since they've hatched. they seem very healthy. But I'm curious as to how long they can sleep for without food. During the night, I've left them unfeed and kept it dark and warm for them. I've left them that way for up to 4 hours. and when I go and check on them, aside from being hungry, they seem fine and go back to sleep once I feed them. I just want to know the max. time they can go without eating. And yes, I know it's illegal to have wild birds and all that, so spare me the lecture and please help me with my question? That would be fantastic. My aunt (Who I live with) Is licensed to care for domestic animals as well as wild. I've personally cared for injured birds-Full grown and fledgling-And know the right kind of food they need. As well as the vitamins I need to supply them with, wich they would normally get in the wild. I also live in a small town and the nearest wildlife center is several hours away. Which is why I've chosen to care for them on my own. I'm aware they don't eat over night. I was just curious as to how long they sleep and don't need to eat. And yes. I've cared for fledglings. and have successfully released them. But not nestlings. My aunt is licensed to have them in her possession. But since I'm going to school for veterinary science, she left the responsibility of them to me. And will not intervene unless she thinks they are at risk of death or sickness. And so far, all of them are normal, healthy baby birds. With no sign of dehydration, Sour crop, pneumonia, etc. I Have since gotten down a regular routine as far as feed/sleeping. And as far as contacting a rehab, I've already stated that the nearest one is several hours away. And it doesn't even specialize in avian care. So thanks for your attempts at helping, but I see that I'm not going to get anything other then scolding and accusing.

We have a bird cage and stuff but we're not sure what to feed it, how many times a day do we feed it? all of that stuff! I googled it but didnt find any answers. so can either you respond or give me a link to a care website - WE DO PLAN ON RELEASING IT, but it's probably not ready to live on it's own quite yet. It's got a majority of feahters, and still some fluff on it :)

I found a baby robin!!!? I found a baby robin in my neighbors yard! My dog escaped and ran into their yard. When I caught I noticed a baby robin sitting there. I would have just stuck him in his nest and left but the nest was placed OVER concrete and if he fell out again he would be killed. I have taken care of baby birds before but never a robin. I need to know what to keep him in. I have a cage but I don't know what to cover the bottom with, I would have used straw but I didn't have any. Should I use newspaper or grass, leaves, ivy or anything like that? I know how to take care of him other than that. One more thing, what do I do if he won't eat? Oh yeah, and the cage is for rabbits... The holes are big enough for him to stick his head through and choke. Will he stop trying to do that once he gets used to it?

Help!! need help caring for an abandoned baby robin!!!? my little brother found a baby robin bird and said the mother and other chicks were dead so he rescued it. we dot know how to keep it alive. please give us some tips or websies hat will help us out.

I need baby robin experts!? Just a few hours ago, I rescued a robin egg from its abandoned nest. My cat had knocked out its sibling's egg, breaking it, and scared its mother away. At first, I was unsure about taking it from its nest incase the mom did come back, but if my cat knew there was another egg in the nest, she would definitely go back. So, I put the egg in some towels and set it under a light. And just minutes after, it began to hatch. Now I have a hatching robin egg, and no "just born" baby robin experience. I've cared for older robins, but never one this young. How long does it take to hatch? What should I feed it when it's done hatching? Will it make it through the night if I put warm towels on it and keep the light on? I've always tried calling the humane soceity. No answer. I doubt they would take it anyway. Any suggestions? I've already tried looking for a place to bring the bird. There's nothing close to me. No one will take it.

Baby Robin eggs?? My dad found six Robin eggs in an old elevator. We have put a lamp over them and placed them in an old shirt.

GH: Robin's problem with her baby? How is it that Robin can take care of another baby (hold her, talk to her, and protect it when transporting the baby to Mercy) during the fire and hospital crisis but she can't do the SAME thing for Emma?

Robin fell from a nest? A Robin has fallen out of a nest at my home. The Robin is 2 weeks old.

A robin nest I recently found with a baby robin and 3 eggs has been left by mother for 3 hours!!! What I DO!? Please read my previous question that I posted earlier. It seems that in the morning, I saw the mother robin with her baby and three eggs (one I found and put there), so I was relieved. But when I checked at 3:00PM, it was gone. It is now 6:00PM, and it has not come back. It is raining pretty hard. I know that the eggs probably won't make it (I don't have an incubator), but what should I do about the hatchling?

Baby robins left nest prematurely, what should I do? I need help. I want to leave them alone and let nature, or their mother, take care of things but 2 out of the 3 chicks fell out of the nest. They are about 2-3 weeks old so they were able to fly down, but they are just sitting in the grass. I let the neighbors know about them and am ready to just leave them alone, but I want a game plan unless other people in the house feel the need to intervene. What is the best course of action if you need to intervene to save the 2 baby chicks?

I have a baby Robin! Need help ASAP!!? Ok well me and my friend were riding our bikes and we found this robin that was hopping around but couldnt fly. She cant keep it and the Pet Store owner cant help out, so I need help as to how to take care of it and get it to fly. Its an adolecent im guessing, because its very close to is max size and can fly somewhat, but not fly fly. If someone could tell me all i need to know, how to feed it, what to feed it, how to get it to fly again, and how to let it not die. Thanks for any help i get! I swear ill name it after the best answerer! XD While i would LOVE to return it to where I found it, i have a slight problem. That bird was a bird that a sinister little girl picked up from who knows where and carried it to the place I found it. So if I returned it to where I found it, it would just die. I have no idea where it really came from. Knowing now that I could get fined for it, I'll call a shelter or something. Because like I said I have no idea where it really came from.

There were two baby robins in my dogs mouth this morning, they were actually unharmed as far as i could tell, he was just holding them in there?? I took them out and called several wildlife centers but as of yet have not heard back from any of them. In the meantime my husband went to the bird store and bought them the bird mixture they said to give them, and ive been feeding them every 2 hours, they are pooping and seem lively enough, but i believe by looking at pics online they are only about 5 days old. I want to know if im doing the right thing with what i am feeding them, how often etc...I really want them to LIVE! Thats why im hoping these people will call me and let me know where i can take them for the best care possible. Please give me any pointers you know! Thank you !

What do I do w/an American Robin when I have not a clue where the nest is. Mother Robin is around the yard.? Just before sunset yesterday, 17Jun, I found a baby robin bouncing around my back yard. Mother Robin was up in a tree just frantic. Being late I couldn't try to find a proper nest, tree, or bush to leave the bird. I now have it in a nice cage and will attempt to care for it until I can release it. What are the chances, w/a prober diet does the little bird have? It's full of feather and can fly a little but cannot make it too far off the ground. Best case scenerio is to put it back where it came from but I haven't a clue where that could be. I'm sure mother bird will hang around the cage, I do have it outside....I could go on and on but ultimately I want to do the best thing for the bird to get it back into nature...WHAT SHOULD I DO...I guess is the question.

General Hospital's Robin Scorpio? Is there anyone out there that is getting disgusted with Robin Scorpio in not letting Patrick be a part of this child's life? He has told her over and over again that he wants to be a part of his child's life and she keeps telling him that he never wanted to be a father in the first place. I don't know what else he can do to prove that he really does want to be a part of his child's life. All I know is that I am getting sick of this scenerio. At one time it did look like Robin was going to let him be a part of this, but now she is not. I say "Get over it Robin. You are not the first woman to have a baby, nor will you be the last. " Give me a break. Her going on the internet was the last straw. I cannot believe the writers of General Hospital keeping this stupid scenerio going. Robin needs to grow up and act mature instead of crying her woes to the world. WHO CARES ROBIN. I bet there are a lot of pregnant women who would love to have a man like Patrick caring for them.

Robin's nest had eggs, now none, but no babies, and mama is still sitting on it!? About 2 1/2 weeks ago, a robin made her nest on our front porch light, and shortly there were 3 eggs (we looked, no touching). she seemed to tolerate us generally, only flying away for a few minutes when we came in or out, and even seemed to have gotten used to us. all this time, she sat on the nest, never leaving for long or very often, and seemed to be turning the eggs several times a day. early this a.m. she and the nest were fine. about 2 hours later, we found the nest on the ground, but no sign of eggs or hatchlings, and we knew it was nearing time for them to be hatching. we checked the ground and the bushes under the nest, but no luck; with great care (and plastic bags) we reset the nest. shortly, mama returned, and has been sitting on the empty nest ALL DAY! it's so SAD! but where are the babies?? or eggs? we're in southeast VA, but unsure about other bird/wildlife in suburbia, and only 1 cat that we know of (neighbors'). any ideas what happened or why she still sits??

I recently saved a pigeon roadside. What can I do to take care of it and find it's owner? It is banded and VERY tame. It suffered trauma (I assume it was hit by a car). It will not use it's left foot nor will it fly. Is there a way to locate the owner? Is it ok to keep it outside? Right now I have it in a hutch outside with some meadow grass(for bedding), the towel that I picked it up with, seed and bottled water in a dish. I do have some bird background but have never rescued a pigeon before. I have rescued/released 11 baby robins, 2 sparrows, etc., nothing older nor of this breed. PLEASE HELP! Thanks in advance! By the way I live in Northern Ohio. Is climate an issue with them as we approach cooler months?
