Birds eat all sorts of different things - fish, small animals, other birds, seeds, fruit, insects, plants, ...
Parents either feed the same food to their young or give them partially digested food.
It could be regurgitated food most likely.
a bird usually feeds its young worms, but might give it partially digested food like penguins for example
It is instinct for the parent bird to feed the baby birds.
no because baby birds cant chew or bit their food.No. Baby birds only eat soft food. Mom bird takes the food they eat and regurgitates into baby birds beak. If you are feeding a baby bird you need to get a small bit of hamburger, mix it with egg yoke and roll it in bone meal. Then, you take a bit at a time and stuff it into the beak of the baby bird.
The one they are feeding is most likely the offspring(baby) of the bird. This is the way baby birds eat when they are little and it takes a while for them to learn to eat on their own.
No, bird houses are only for birds to nest in. You will need to get a bird feeder to feed the birds with.
Yes, it's OK to place a fallen baby bird back in the nest. It's a myth parent birds will kill babies that have human scent on them. The parents will care for it if the baby bird isn't ill. Baby birds often end up out of the nest because parent birds "kick" them out due to illness. Seems cruel, but it's how Mother Nature works.
birds need feeding
The cuckoo bird is the laziest parent.
one time I heard that once you touch the egg the female won't warm the egg anymore, or if you touch the baby bird she will stop feeding the baby NC
No, a baby bird cant, but if it is crushed it can.
If the bird is still laying there and the mother/father is still feeding the baby bird, the bird must have just fell out of the nest and there isn't anything wrong with it. One of the parents will get it to its nest or get it to a safe place and take care of it. If the parent(s) do not want anything to do with it then the bird is sick and not eating, they just give up. You should place the bird in a warm shoe box with hay and make sugar water and feed that to the bird by using a dropper. You don't want to feed it to much. There are site that tell you directions with feeding a baby bird. :)
