We have little sparrows here and the chooks tolerate them. But raw meat is too yummy to pass out.
In Albis says we need a supply of baby sparrows instead of mealworms. She got a peck for that comment.
I hope she will. I remembered rat steak and figured she'd be fine.
The most upsetting part of this is that my family has had a bunch of rescued birds lately and I'm sure if this one was alive it would've ended up being rescued.
Also, Gaby just gave In Albis a nice hard peck.
In Albis Ate A Bird.
In Albis found a small, featherless, presumably dead baby bird and ate it before I could stop her. Do you think she'll be ok? Anything I should do? She practically swallowed it.
If she doesn't stop with the broody threaten her with having to spend the night in the human house. Works best on birds that prefer not to have human company.
