i know this may sound digusting but look for worms MASH them and feed it to the bird and always keep it warm <P>

<P>I've taken care of many baby birds. You can keep the baby starling in a shoebox (with airholes). baby birds need to be fed from daylight (dawn) to nightfall, every 30 minutes, so you're in for the long haul. food: if you have a dog, and/or want to buy dry dog food, you can moisten it, (small amount at a time, mash it into mush, and offer it to the baby bird, using (i.e.), a popsicle stick (simulates mother's beak. Put some of the dog food mush in a plastic cup (disposable). Dig out a small amount, for each feeding. hold the baby, gently, by holding him around his body, while confining his wings (so he won't try to fly, and get hurt). Actually GENTLY, put the popsicle stick, with the food on it, in the corner of the beak (soft part), thereby trying to get him to open his beak. Then, just shove GENTLY, the food down. If dog food isn't an option, you can buy "Zwieback" biscuits (used to feed babies [human]), perform the same mashing-up process, and porceed with instructions. It is next to impossible to locate/reach most birdnests. Another alternative, is to contact a licensed "bird rehabilitator". Call either the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Administration (Federal listing in phonebook), a local zoo, or the Audubon Society, to find a rehabilitator in your area. Don't try to let the bird fly, in a confined area, as he could crash into a wall, and break his neck. When you think he might be ready to be released, you can do so in a wooded area, for example. In a backyard, your efforts might have been in vain, as a cat might surely kill him! By the way, the shoebox simulates the safe, enclosed feeling of the nest. Good luck!! </P>

Can 2 downs people have a normal baby?

Yes. When a baby is born from two parents with 47 chromosomes, the chromosomes of each parent will split into 23 and 24 chromosomes. This makes three posibilities under conception: 1. 23 from mom and 24 from dad, or vice versa: There's a 50% chance for this, and this will give the baby 47 chromosomes, so it'll have Down Syndrome like its parents. 2. 24 from each parents. In this case it won't work, because a human being can't possibly live with 48 chromosomes. So 25% chance that there won't be a baby that can possibly survive. 3. 23 from each parent. There's a 25% chance for this, which mean that the baby won't have down syndrome. So overall: 75% chance for normal baby, because people with Down Syndrome are no less normal than other people. And 25% chance for a baby that can't possibly survive through conception, and that's what I would call an abnormal baby. And if the baby do survive through conception, these are the odds: 2/3 chance that the baby will have Down Syndrome. 1/3 chance that it won't. 100% chance for a normal baby :) Or maybe 0% chance for normal baby? Because normal is relative, right?


How do you tell if a baby starling is a male or female?

The only way to tell if a baby starling is male or female is by testing, such as blood tests. If you do not want to do that, you will have to wait until the starling is older and watch its behavior.
