Chili is very cute! I have a male sparrow named Archimedes. I saved him when he was a hatchling. He is now 9 years old and is such a sweet, loving bird.
You are such a great sparrow mommy!!😀😀😀 Wow! 9 years!? What's the life span of house sparrows? I tried to Google it but I couldn't find the answer. I hope my Chili lives for a long long time with me. She's been sick for the past over a month 😔.
I saved our flegling song sparrows last year who ended up blind in one eye. He does all the same things as well lol but, he doesn't get nippy like that.
I have a sparrow that I rescued as a baby. she's about 2 and her name is peach. mine does just about everything your does exept instead of hands she likes to pull my hair and nibble on my face and neck. freckles and mustache and beard stubble are her favorite. she also trys to bath on my laptop keyboard. silly bird
Haha、sounds like Peach is about Chili's age! Chili does exactly the same thing too! She tries pull out beauty marks 、my hair、and whatever she sees on my body from my toe to head lol 😂😂😂 It hurts sometimes but I forgive her lol. She loves sleeping on my neck at night and she packs at it if she doesn't feel comfortable 😑
Just found a baby house sparrow on the street. I couldn’t find a nearby nest, so I took him home. He is well fed and warm, and I hope I can give him the life he deserves.
@PumpkinPie12344 unfortunately he passed a few days after I found him. He was young enough that his chances of survival without his mother were super low. I'm just glad I was able to give him a comfortable last few days rather than dying alone on a hot sidewalk.
So cute, those white wings. I have a pet sparrow too for over half a year. She was wounded at street when she was a baby. It is a very lively and playfull little bird. She makes me laugh all the time. What ever I focus on, she wants to discover too. She is intelligent and very social. We eat togehter too every day. When I sing along with music, she starts to sing too.
Awww you have such a sweet little fur ball with wings 😆💖💖💖 I honestly think sparrows are great pets! Chili is joy of my life and I can't imagine living without her 💕 I wish Chili sings along with me too lol 😂
@@SAKSOON I will put a video online soon! I was wondering if their behavior is like mine, she is called Musje, which means little sparrow in Dutch :-) I see similarities. Best thing about sparrows is they seem always happy, and full of joy! :-)
Hello from Tasmania Australia. I love this video. We are the parents of the late "Spoggy" the sparrow and we still have "Norbu" the sparrow with us (age 9.5 years old). This video does indeed show things that people should take into account before raising a sparrow and allowing it to be part of their everyday life. It can be very messy, poop and feathers everywhere and yes, sparrows love to attack and bite. But as you say, they also reward you with their cuteness. My male sparrow Norbu watched this video and loved it. He does all the things your sparrow does. Love to you both :-)
Thank you for sharing a little story of Norbu 😆💖 Wow you had him for so long! Yeah, they make a huge mess in your house but I don't mind. Im used to her poop now 😂. can't resist her ultimate cuteness!!
😂😂😂. My bird can touch me whenever she wants, but I can't touch her or she will pack my fingers so hard lol. She also wants to take everything that's in my hand but she loses interest in that object once she takes it from me. She's evil.
@@emdee31 surprisingly, sparrows live very long in captivity. One of my subscribers has 9yr old sparrow 😲lol. And other person has 7yr old sparrow. They only get to live 3yrs in wild bc they get eaten or get sick easily.
Hi, SAK-SOON♡ Thank you for your information about keeping a bird out side of a cage. I feel like I really learned something when I have a bird. Chilli is so adorable❤
@@SAKSOON ,so does mine she saw a hang nail on my nail before I knew it she was trying to rip it off and she made me bleed lol but she's my beautiful lady I even take her to work with me at night and she rides in my goody fun huh but I work nights and my bird does not let me sleep with out biting the yell out of my ears eyes or my god my lips some say sleep some where else I'm scared she will get lonely!
@@shellierodarmel7282 😂😂😂 omg she used to be like that when I sleep until late! She wouldn't let me sleep so I had to cover up my face with the blankie lol. But nowadays she tries not to bother me anymore unless she needs food desperately. She just sits on me and watch me sleeping. If her bowl is empty, she bites my fingers real hard to wake me up lol.
I have three budgies,the wee one is the worst she has destroyed our coven above the window,we have tried everything to stop her but she still outsmarted us,very clever little birds,we have one that talks very well,he likes girls a lot,when a new family member of friend comes in an it s a girl he lands on her shoulder an says"hi,baby", "kids kiss?" but they are so much fun!,all the best from Scotland.
HAHAHA! We just adopted a house sparrow and I'm relieved to see that some of the weird/annoying behaviors aren't just our bird! I've never seen a white-winged sparrow before. Those are beautiful!
That's awesome!! 😃😃😃 Welcome to the crazy sparrow world lol 😂. You will discover how amazing these sparrows are as they age. They become sweeter and more gentle 🥹 Chili had a feather problem when she was found, and it took her a long time to recover. When she started getting new feathers, white feathers came out! She dramatically changed from ugliest to prettiest 😆💕
Aw Chilli is so pure. I have a child named Cricket. He tries to eat my freckles. 😂. I rescued him off the sidewalk in a busy city. He’s so social and he loves to poop on your hand 😂😂! He’s not a good flyer and some of his tail feathers are missing. The plan is to rehabilitate but he’s gotten so attached to me and living an easy inside life. I’m not sure if he’ll want to go. His favorite food is watermelon. I love bragging about his pure personality. 😂😂
😂😂😂 Chili used to try to eat my freckle too 😂😂 Once a baby bird is attached to human, it's not a good idea to release them back to wild. Oh, Chili had a feather problem too. Your birdy doesn't have the tail feather prolly because of the lack of vitamins. If you provide lots of vitamins and protein, he will recover 😀😀😀 I'm looking forward to hear further birdy story 😆💕
My family and I were at the beach today. The sun was shining but the wind was blowing like crazy. I chewed on more twigs and pebbles than I can count. Life is great :D
So cool! I began feeding mealworms to a couple of Mockingbirds, outside, several weeks ago. No sooner had I started, than the Robins & Sparrows began coming to get THEIR share, too! Well, the Robins were like "bullying" the Mockingbirds, even chasing them down & "beaking" them, to get a mealworm away from them. I was surprised... cuz I always thought Robins were very kind & gentle to ALL. So I began shooing the Robins away. But the sparrows... heck, they were SO LITTLE. They would NEVER think of trying to BULLY the 2 dear Mockingbirds! So, I let them hang around & get some mealworms, too. BUT, after a couple of weeks, all of a sudden I'm seeing these cute innocent little sparrows getting "entitled" to ALL the mealworms, & even getting aggressive to Mr & Mrs Mockingbird! I was shocked... hense I'm researching more info about them. I think this was a really good article/video you made!
I really enjoyed your story 😆😆😆💖 Surprisingly, sparrows are actually very aggressive. I bet they would kill everything if they were big lol. They are just too tiny to start a fight with other birds 😂
This is so true for all sparrows. My little dude would piss me off sometimes and I’d have to put em in his cage. He was a little shit head, but I grew to love em.
I think they become mature as they get old. As of today, she's 6 years old, and now she's a lot more gentle and sweeter than before! She knows I feel pain if she pecks me, so she's very careful with her beak around me. She's the sweetest thing ever 🥹💕
My sparrow never did that she was very friendly . She flew into my window and broke her wing . I Kept her for 3 months until she could fly agian .The second bird i had was a Jackdaw that i found on my back porch he spent the night than i released him the next day.
You saved 2 birdies 😆! Chili is such a jerk but if you have seen my recent video, she was being super sweet when I was injured 😭💖 . Birds are such great creatures 💕
I have a house sparrow his name is Stolas, he is the cutest bird ever, he is a fledging, i love him so much, i found him when he was a nestling. He’s very sweet, its very rare that he bites, and he cleans his beak on me when he eats, i find that very adorable. Im so glad i found him.
Sparrows are actually very loving birds in their own way 😆💕 I really love my bird, Chili, and I can't imagine myself living without her. I can tell that Stolas will become your soul mate of your life as well (maybe he is already) 😍💖
My boy beat me up for a solid year and a half but he has mellowed out now, thank God haha Whenever he attacks or bites I ask him to step up on to my finger and try not to flinch away from him if he continues his attack. Mostly to try show him that attacking me won't get him what he wants but at the same time doesn't scare him. Has your girl settled down or does she still attack?
Hello Sak Soon how are you doing today fine I hope thanks so much for sharing this video with us Chilli is so so cute. You can see the connection there she loves you and you love her it's so lovely to see she's quite a bit of work. But I think she's just lovely and long time no see I hope your doing good. And you are so pretty you should show your face more often if you don't want to show your face I understand it was really fun to watch. Don't leave it so long next time. Bella is doing really well, I've had her for 3 months now she's a bit of work but I wouldn't have her any other way well take real good care of yourself and your pets and lots of love from Jackie and Bella bye for now love Jackie x x x
Thank you so much, Jackie, for your lovely comment like all the time! 😊💗💗💗 Your comment is always so heartwarming and makes me feel very happy! And wow, it's been 3 months already since you met Bella! Time flies so fast!! I'm glad you guys are working hard to get close to each other day after day 😄 Thank you again and I'm looking forward to see your lovely comment and updates on Bella again soon🐹💓💓💓
@@SAKSOON … so anyways this year I have robins in the tree bush thing and I put a bird feeder a few feet or aphew inches away or a foot away we’re the nest is. :)
Hi. I rescued a sparrow 2 weeks ago, he couldn’t fly and he looked very sick when I found him. He is already imprinted on me so I can’t release him. I’m going to keep him but I have two cats. Any suggestions or advice? I got him a huge cage and he is very social and cute. He loves eating cat food and veggies. Oh seeds are his favorites too. How can I tell if he is a boy or a girl?
Thank you for saving the little guy 💓 Cats will attack little bird just for curiosity. It's not a good idea to let your cats access to the room where the bird is. Bird will get stressed a lot if they see predators even from the distance. Male sparrows are darker colors, they have black part on the head. Females are lighter colors, mostly brown and have lines around their head. Chili is female! Try to give the birdy seeds and grains! Pallets for small birds(canaries food) is perfect as well🙂🙂🙂 Fresh fruits are great snackies.
Ive taken in wildlife before (normally just long enough to get to a rehabber) but my coworker brought me a day old sparrow whose nest was destroyed and leg injured. He/she is 18 days old now and so rewarding loves giving kisses and wags tail like a dog. My only complaint is the poops are literally as big as his head for some reason 😩 lmao
@@SAKSOON yes the leg is healed and she is otherwise okay! Do sparrows raised from birth have a chance in the wild? I feel like she would be happier free but I also want her to survive..I've never kept/raised wildlife for this long usually it is short term
@@theavidbookworm8361 more likely, they have a very low chance to survive in wild if they are hand-raised. In the house sparrow community, we don't recommend people to release young sparrows. I totally understand that you feel bad if you don't release them, fortunately they can also have a good life with humans as long as you give them lots of love and care. A healthy sparrow in wild can live about 3yrs in wild, but they can live over 10yrs in captivity. They can be great pets 🙂
What a cool video! I apologize if you've answered this question elsewhere, but how did you find sparrows with a leucistic mutation on their wings? It's super pretty but I didn't know you could find it non-randomly in sparrows.
Thank you,, Doug😀😀😀💖 I have no idea lol. Chili was just a normal baby with less feather than other baby birds. She had a feather problem and was going bald. But when she grew up, her feather problem was treated and started getting white feather for some reason. She came from ugliest sparrow to the most beautiful sparrow ☺💕
We found a nestling sparrow in our upstairs hallway today, all our windows were closed and we found the cat playing with it giving us reason to believe she found it outside and brought it inside and she is really caring towards her. Do you have any advice on how to take care of it
Thank you for rescuing little fella☺💖 First of all, you need to keep the baby very very warm. And then you need to feed it every 2 hours at least. You can stop feeding at 11pm since it's prolly gonna go to sleep. But it will wake up around 6am lol. Here's my video on how to make baby bird food: ruclips.net/video/1ztEvmASBCU/видео.html I also have videos on taking care of baby birds, so please check them out. They are pretty helpful.
Hey! Me and my family found a sparrow laying on the sidewalk with a broken leg. We took it home and put it in my pretty big hamster cage that i am not using yet because I don't have a hamster yet. We used botanical hay as a bedding and gave it some fruits and water. Please tell me if i can do anything to help it out.
Thank you for helping out this poor little birdy ☺💖 Keeping it warm is the most important thing for now. Make sure it eats something. Crushed boiled egg, seeds, a tiny bit of fruit and green veggies would be good since you don't have the proper bird food. Idk what to do with the broken leg, either. It's something only vets can do 🙁.
@@SAKSOON Thank you! We went out and bought some bird seed, and millets. I also cut some apples he liked. He is jumping around now but my only concern is getting him to fly. Onces he can fly we plan on letting him go. I also want to go to petsmart soon to get some toys to entertain him for the time being. But his leg is so much better and he's so fast jumping around.
@@Ilovemywife110 Wow! Sounds like you are doing great!!😀 That little guy got another chance to live because you helped him 😭😭😭💖 Can he perch on your arm? If he can, let him perch on your arm while you are standing and then drop your arm, or sit down, quickly. It's a good method to teach them how to fly. Not all of a sudden, start slowly and then drop fast. He will use his wings to balance on your arm and will eventually fly. It's a good technique to build up some muscles in wings 🐥
@@SAKSOON Hello! Sorry I haven't replied in a while. A couple weeks after you replied he flew! I let him fly around my room for a bit. I could even pick him up. Then around 2:00 today we let him go. He just sat on the little courtyard windowsill for a bit so we put his toys, food, and water there. Then he flew in a tree and now he's gone. I am happy he's in the wild but a bit sad he's gone. Nevertheless I hope he visits if he's hungry or thirsty.
@@Ilovemywife110 🥺🥺🥺🥺 I hope he's doing well by now. Thank you so much for taking care of the little birdy and giving him another chance to live a great life. 💖💖💖💖💖
Your Cute sparrow ! My sparrow is nestling now . Will grow soon i hope so . Can you guide us what to feed nestlings.i made my nestling sparrow a bannana shaked in less water so its dense.and also fed him some worms.
Thank you, Khan☺☺☺💖 I have a perfect link for you! It shows how to make food for baby birds and it's very easy and simple. ruclips.net/video/1ztEvmASBCU/видео.html
@@SAKSOON thanks for helping me. Here is no availability of cat food.i will improvise on thing i have available here.The bird i am feeding is nestling. In your video you are feeding fledglings . Maybe this food applies to both
@@Mr.Kalashnikov47 oh, the food i showed you can be fed to both nestling and fledgling. As long as you feed them something high in protein, it would be good 🙂 Also, providing them vitamins can give them healthy feather development. I'm sure you will do great for the little baby bird ☺☺☺💖
@@SAKSOON Okay nice ! That was nice tutorial that you shown me how to feed the babies ! Yes i will do my best possible care i could give the baby bird ! Hope he grows up . I currently feeding him worms , banana and apple juiced in water and giving him warm temperature.
This comment may be a little late, this was a great video. The only thing I want to point out is that by telling your sparrow to stop when it bites you, you are essentially rewarding it with attention. The best way to discourage biting is to immediately return it to its cage. I know this from multiple years of experience raising multiple different species of bird, sparrows included. Hope this helps, loved the video!
I’m excited about this little sparrow I rescued from work. I named him/her Cororo (from Corona virus lmao) i know it sounds weird but the reason is because today is the lockdown of all flights and travel in my country. 😂 Thanks for this video btw Chilli is so cute hehe
Thank you, Joeislay😃😃😃💖 And that's a great name for such depressing days like this😂😂 How's Cororo doing!? And what kind is that bird?? I hope you stay safe!! Don't go out as much as you can 👍
SAK- SOON thank you! I think he/she is a house sparrow. He’s doing fine, I think he’s three days old since he already has feathers and his eyes almost open.
@@JosephDeLosSantos-t3m Awww it's a little baby!! Don't forget to place him/her in a very warm area and feed at least every 2 hours! One of my videos shows how to make baby bird food and that will help you 😀
I rescued one months ago. But mine does none of this,. I think she is depressed she doesn’t even have a tail ..might of plucked it out,. I don’t have her caged so she hangs at the window .. not sure what to do
For the tail feather, maybe it needs more nutrients. Please check out the video description and it shows all the product that Chili uses/eats. All animals have different personalities or traits, and your baby might be a shy one. Make sure to leave her alone and keep the room dark and quiet at around 7pm (5pm for winter) and let her sleep 12hours. Birds need to sleep for 12hrs a day. Change water and food daily for the freshness. I like using the water bath instead of a water bottle so my bird can take a water bath whenever she wants to take. And try to keep her company as much as you can. They get bored and lonely 🥺
@@SAKSOON she won’t eat anything I try to give her, she never tried the bath. Always seems scared of me untill night time she goes on her cage and let’s me pet her;. Sometiems she will bite .
@@sniperpaintcorrection Sparrows are like that. They don't let you touch them, but they can touch you lol😂. Birds naturally wants bath when they feel not clean, so just keep shallow water (that goes up to her ankle) near her cage. Just put the pallets and seed mix in the bowl. She won't be picky when she's hungry lol
I have rescued a sparrow few months ago. She still stays with me and spends most of the time outside with other birds coming back home at night. I’m afraid of winter time. Winter in Connecticut USA can be really harsh. Is she going to be OK with cold outdoor temperatures in winter or is better to keep her inside until spring? Any suggestions? I have to admit that she prefers to be outside during the day.
Winter time is definitely harsh especially for the ones that are facing the new life in wild. However, spring is too far ahead and the bird will get attached to the human, which means that there's a low chance that the bird will survive in wild long enough even if it's warm outside. If you are planning to release it, it's better to do it now, I feel like..
@@SAKSOON Thank you for your response. I never wanted to keep her. Even if I love her with all my heart, she belongs to nature not me. The plan was to release her as soon as possible. I found her when she was 4 days old and introduced her to life in wild as soon as the 2nd week of her life while still taking care of her all needs. I never wanted her to attach to me. She never liked to be touched or carried which I thought was a great sign. On the other hand, she loves to hang out and play with other birds. Therefore, I let her go outside every single morning hoping that she will stay, but she’s not. She comes back home at the bad time every single evening. She doesn’t want to leave me and her room permanently. I’m OK with it. She will stay as long as she wants to. Only one thing that scares me is winter. I don’t know how to handle it. I can’t find any relevant information on this topic. Everything I see is about pet birds and what temperature is too cold for them. I don’t consider her as a pet bird. Should I let her continue her daily routine of being outside all day long and spending nights inside in winter or it’s better to keep her inside all the time and wait until it gets warmer? I’m assuming there is going to be at least 40-60 degrees Fahrenheit in temperature difference between indoor and outdoor during that time. Will she accommodate to that temp fluctuation between day/ outside and night/ inside? The window in her room is always half way open, but still the temperature inside will be much higher than outside. She started to grow extra feathers already. So, her body prepares itself for cooler temperatures. Nonetheless, I want to be on a safe side. I don’t want her to get sick and die from cold. Thank you for any suggestions!
@@Anita_She I totally understand. If she's not letting you touch her or afraid of you, that's absolutely a good sign. Once you release the bird, you probably want to leave some water and food just in case if she can't find food in wild. She will come back and check out your house if she really can't find anything to eat. Did she molt for thicker feathers? Wild birds are tougher than birds in captivity. Adult wild birds are capable to survive in cold weather, unless they are sick or injured. I strongly believe that your bird will survive since the bird has been communicating with other bird friends and already been exposed to outside world. Just introduce her food that she can find outside such as seed and fruits. Try to not interact with her as much as possible. She must not get attached to you. If she does, there's a high chance that she will approach to random people to look for food and attention. Try to release it soon. Earlier is better for the bird so she can learn and get used to the wildlife before it gets too cold. You are such a nice person. Thank you so much for caring and giving the little birdy another chance to live💕 Good luck to you and the little birdy😄
The sparrow fledgling my family recently rescued doesn't seem to like flying out of its cage, refuse to eat unless it's on our hand, and prefers drinking from straw instead of the water dish oddly. Should I be worried that it's relying so much on us? We're trying to teach it to eat on its own tho somehow I have a feeling it might think my fingers are food. 😂😂😂
Thank you for helping the little birdy 💕 Please check out my video on "how to make baby bird food" and you need to force feed it if it's not opening its mouth. Press each side of the beak gently with your index and thumb and it will open the mouth. Feed it every 2 hours from 6am to 10pm (if the baby goes to sleep earlier around 8pm due to the darkness, you can just leave it sleeping). Please don't give bird water unless it's on the shallow plate that goes up to half of its legs. Moisture in the food should be enough for the baby. Water shouldn't be fed to the baby because it might go through the respiratory system, which can cause death. If you give it fresh water daily in a plate, it will eventually learn how to drink and bath on its own as time goes by. Are you thinking about releasing the baby? It's actually better to take the baby to a wild bird rehab (they take down baby sparrows if they are sick, but if it seems healthy, they will take care of it and release it to nature) because babies can be attached to humans so easily and won't be able to survive for long in wild. If you put seeds on the ground, the baby will play with it and eventually learn how to eat them on its own as well. I hope this will help you and the little birdy 🙂🙂🙂💖
@@SAKSOON Thank you so much for all the information! I was thinking about releasing it once it can eat/find food on it's own, unless it gets attached to us then we don't mind having an extra member to our family. But I'll look into wild bird rehab for it, it seems like a better choice for the bird long term.
Ahhhh D: i'm so sad, I just tried to recuse a baby sparrow and he just passed away from me but within the short 2 days of having him I fell in love, I blame myself even though it was quite sick and in rough condition when I found him by his lonesome. R.I.P. broke my heart
Please don't blame yourself 🥺. You did your best to save this little life 💕. Like you said, he was already sick and there was nothing else you could do 😔. Thank you for trying hard. You are a really nice person 🥺💖. Rip, little friend..!! Fly high🌈🕊
i just got 4 sparrows (they grew up in and were bred in captivity so they cant survive in the wild) but they are very skittish and untrusting any advice?? also what can they eat besides seeds, like what kinds of fruit?
Yup, they are worse than cats lol. Chili doesn't let me touch her, but she touches me lol. And she also gets suspicious of everything and anything red (she freaks out when I'm in a red shirt 😂). I guess it's because they are originally from wild although they are raised by human. They can eat anything! I give my sparrow fresh fruits, such as apple, pear, mango, etc. But don't give them too much fruits because they will get diarrhea since fruits contain lots of water. A tiny piece would be good (size of your index fingernail). Sometimes I give her a very tiny piece of crackers and breads (must be blend, no chocolate, no chunks of sugar, no stronf seasoning) just to let her enjoy some new taste.
@@val2kool that's actually one question I have lol. I tried to look for the answer but I couldn't find it. Sparrows in wild live only up to 3yrs because of predators and eating bad stuff. But the lifespan of sparrows in captivity is very longgg. From what I researched, we are talking about 23yrs max lol. One of my subscribers has 7 years old and 6 years old sparrows and they are still very healthy and young looking.
Hi! I would like to know chili's diets as my 9months old sparrow sometimes very picky about veggies and worms (he is scared of worms), I wish to see what else can I add to his diet to keep him healthy ♥️♥️
Chili only eats pallets, egg food, and seed mix. Sometimes fruits and veggies as snacks. If you check out the video description, you can see all the products that Chili uses. 😉
I have a question, I rescued a fledgling Sparrow 2 weeks ago and I want to know how do I get it to start eating on its own and will it survive without me feeding it, will it survive without me, I want to realease it but, I don't want it to starve to death, thank you
I had the exact same concern! I started training the bird by putting tiny tiny flower seeds on the floor of the cage (I covered the floor with a layer of paper towels). The baby bird will be curious about it and will start packing. Then I got little snacks for canary called Sunburst Gourmet Fruit & Veggies which contains millet, sesame,flax, papaya, carrots, etc. Put it in a bowl and let the bird play with it. The bird will naturally start eating them slowly. I hope this will help you and your little birdy 😀💕
I give her mixed grains and seeds! White millet, red millet, grass seed, wheat, and oat groat. Sometimes 1-2 sunflower seed for a snack (I have to peel it off for her since she's too small and weak to break the shell lol xD!)
I’ve been feeding my sparrow the proper foods, but she’s been loosing ALOT of feathers, not from pulling them out, but she’s also lost a lot of her tail feathers, is there something else I could feed her or give her for nutrients. Or even a certain brand of seeds
A huge cage, as big as possible, if you don't want them to roam around in your room. It's better to let it free in your room or it will get stressed out easily.
@@jadenlopez6563 If you are letting her roam around the room, the cage size doesn't really matter. Chili has a tiny cage but I leave the top of my bird cage open all the time and she uses it as her own 'room' to sleep in, rest, eat, and bath. Chili does recognize her name. She looks at me or flies to me when I call her name. You just need to call your bird's name repeatedly and give it delicious treats 🙂.
I found a sparrow in my front yard it still tiny and I’m gonna to let it go and be free after it gets big!😊is that a good idea ?+I’m giving him food it’s doing very good,some times it tries to escape from the cage is that normal?and I’m felling so bad but I can’t get it out I’m sure it’s gonna be a good meal for cats😬😅i hope u answer 💗some times when I’m feeding it it sleep on my hand 😅
Make sure you don't get bonded with the bird☝️ The bird must not get used to humans or it will die early in wild. No interaction at all except the feeding time! Once it gets used to eating on its own, that's when you can release him. Try to feed him something you can find outside because it won't know what to eat when it's free. Also, try to play the house sparrow songs on your phone often, so it can learn its own language 😀💕
@@SAKSOON. I wonder how your Chili would react if you get a budgie. Will Chili stop pooping on you and start playing with a new bird? I might get a bird soon and so i wonder how my bird will react to the new one.
@@SAKSOON . My bird used to fly off my finger when I walked up/down stairs. He almost hit the edge one time and I got so mad and yelled at him. After that he never did it again. Also one time he flew off my finger and tumble down the stairs. Oh, I got mad and yelled at him. Now he never does it again. He chirps to let me know when he's hungry, thirsty, poops and wants go to to bed. If he wants my attention and doesn't like me talking on phone, he starts kissing me several times. Before I would take him to bed at 5p.m. and when I walk upstairs, he turns around and kisses me. Before bed, I make him kiss me 2x before going to bed and of course I kiss him back 2x on his back. In the Summer, I would put him down in the kitchen and then tell him to go home. He runs down hallway, past family room, to sunroom, and then climbs up his perch and get into cage. Now I teach him to fly so that his wing muscles get stronger. I count 1, 2 (he crouch down) and then 3, he flies off finger. Or when I say "fly", he flies.
Awww your bird is so sweet!! What kind of bird is it? I don't think house sparrows are not that smart, just like Chili lol. Chili isn't trainable at all. All she can do is yelling back at me when I yell at her for doing bad things lolol. She even pecks her own tail just because she doesn't like it and get angry at it. So I assume Chili isn't a smart bird :l
@@SAKSOON. When I first got him, I was afraid he might not be the right bird. He won't let me pet him, he doesn't talk, doesn't play. Now I'm so connected to him. When I go outside for several hours, I tell him "Rainbow, I have to go shopping eg: walmart, 99c store, target, etc., and I'll be back in 1 or 2 hrs ok. He listens to me. I say goodbye to him so that he knows I'm leaving and doesn't think I'm at home. He sits on his perch. Doesn't wander around and have me worried that someone might step on him or gets lost/killed. When I come back, he's still on his perch outside the cage. People say "oh, don't put your finger into cage". Ehhh, wrong. Mine, the moment I put finger in there, he jumps on finger and have me take him out. Now I take him outside. W/ his good eyes, he can see hawks and predators before I do.
There are many things that can cause eye swelling. It might bc of infection, maybe vitaminA deficiency, etc. Vet visit is the best way to treat the birdy 😣
My cat just broutgh home a sparrow that is alive u thik my cat just bit his wing no bite wound on the body i have it in a box v bird seeds and some bread and a blanket so wish me luck
How come you don't put paper towel in the nest so that it's easier to clean when she poops. I was thinking of getting a canary. I might end up getting a budgie. Breeder has found a baby budgie and very tame.
Oh, I don't use that nest anymore. I gave her a bottle with a sock in it and she likes it more lol. I tried to put a paper towel in the next, but she pulls it out as soon as I look away 😂 I wanna get bigger birds, too. but I don't think Chili will be happy to share the same space with other creatures lol
Chili had a feather problem until she became fully grown. There's no way she could survive in wild since she's too attached to human. Plus she got white feathers unlike normal sparrows, which makes her the first target for hawks. Please watch my other videos. Thank you 🙂
wow that's hilarious that it will chase the mouse cursor on the screen. I want to keep one as a pet, but isn't there a concern about virus/disease? these critters aren't exactly meant to be our domestic buddies.
She was a rescue as a baby, and she had some feather issues until she grew up. Not all wild animals carry diseases, especially when they are young. It's better to let wild rescue handle any animals in help and release back to nature. However, sparrows are considered invasive pest, so rescues wouldn't take care of them. I have a video in my channel talking about this stuff when I rescued Chili!
Popping by to say you are a bit misinformed on the diet. Whilst its great to have fresh fruit and veggies in their diets they are actually grain birds, so they mainly will eat oats, seeds and bread products. Mine loves soft wheat tortillas!
Grains and seeds are Chili's basic daily meal 😆 I'm saying birds can also enjoy fresh fruit and veggies as snacks. Chili would choose to eat them instead of bread and tortillas lol. Idk about other birds, but that's her taste preference 😂😂😂. She actually doesn't like tortilla and bread, or any other blend and dried food 🤔. I know, it sounds weird for a bird lol but that's Chili 😂😂😂
SAK- SOON O I have a idea for a vid u can do what if u make clay out of flour and water and then make a house for your hamster like u did with the other clays I think u can bake it to speed up drying time I’m sure it would be a great video
@@kazuki_setsunai103 wow!! That's actually an awesome idea! It's gonna be a bread house 😂😂😂. It will be eaten by a hammy within a minute 😂😂😂😂. I'll keep that in mind!!!
SAK- SOON lol yeah I remember making a paper mache house and my hamster started to eat it it was made out of cornstarch and water with the toilet paper it was light and a bit to small so my hammy kept moving it around XD
I'm not so sure. Life span for sparrows in wild is about 2 years, but the longest ever lived sparrow in the record was 16yrs lolol. One of my subscribers has 7yr and 6yr old sparrows and they are still looking healthy and young. So,,, idk 😂
@iancastillo6871 I think they get more mature as they get older and more understanding of humans. Chili can understand a few sentences and words and reacts to them. She gets excited when she hears food words such as "snackie" or "seeds," lol. She also knows "I love you" and "go to sleep." It's really heartwarming to see her reaction after she understands what I say. 🥺💖
I had to cover the entire floor with paper towels because her poop leaves stain on the carpet. I also have extra layer of blanket to cover my bed and it's covered in poop lol.
I think my house sparrow, Cricket, would love a friend. However, I wouldn’t buy a sparrow. I only rescue birds I see that need help because of my parents. and even if I were to adopt, or buy, sparrows are not really common house pets.
Chili is very cute! I have a male sparrow named Archimedes. I saved him when he was a hatchling. He is now 9 years old and is such a sweet, loving bird.
You are such a great sparrow mommy!!😀😀😀 Wow! 9 years!? What's the life span of house sparrows? I tried to Google it but I couldn't find the answer. I hope my Chili lives for a long long time with me. She's been sick for the past over a month 😔.
I have one too 8 months old. The eldest they can live is up to 20 years if they’re domesticated and 2-3 years when they’re wild.
I saved our flegling song sparrows last year who ended up blind in one eye. He does all the same things as well lol but, he doesn't get nippy like that.
I have so much house sparrows in my yard and idk they just poop barley plus idk good for soil the grass is very green or just because the worms idk.
(TF2 music starts playing)
I have a sparrow that I rescued as a baby. she's about 2 and her name is peach. mine does just about everything your does exept instead of hands she likes to pull my hair and nibble on my face and neck. freckles and mustache and beard stubble are her favorite. she also trys to bath on my laptop keyboard. silly bird
Haha、sounds like Peach is about Chili's age! Chili does exactly the same thing too! She tries pull out beauty marks 、my hair、and whatever she sees on my body from my toe to head lol 😂😂😂 It hurts sometimes but I forgive her lol. She loves sleeping on my neck at night and she packs at it if she doesn't feel comfortable 😑
Both Peach and Chilli are such cutie-pie birbs! ❤❤
Thank you、Rosy 😊😊😊💖
Just found a baby house sparrow on the street. I couldn’t find a nearby nest, so I took him home. He is well fed and warm, and I hope I can give him the life he deserves.
@PumpkinPie12344 unfortunately he passed a few days after I found him. He was young enough that his chances of survival without his mother were super low. I'm just glad I was able to give him a comfortable last few days rather than dying alone on a hot sidewalk.
So cute, those white wings. I have a pet sparrow too for over half a year. She was wounded at street when she was a baby. It is a very lively and playfull little bird. She makes me laugh all the time. What ever I focus on, she wants to discover too. She is intelligent and very social. We eat togehter too every day. When I sing along with music, she starts to sing too.
Awww you have such a sweet little fur ball with wings 😆💖💖💖 I honestly think sparrows are great pets! Chili is joy of my life and I can't imagine living without her 💕 I wish Chili sings along with me too lol 😂
@@SAKSOON I will put a video online soon! I was wondering if their behavior is like mine, she is called Musje, which means little sparrow in Dutch :-) I see similarities. Best thing about sparrows is they seem always happy, and full of joy! :-)
@@bertitolino What a cute name 😆💕That's awesome!! 😀😀😀 I'll chek it out once it's up on online 💖💖💖
@@SAKSOON Hello, I put a video online, wish I had more time, because I have so much video's :-) You get an impression now.
@@bertitolino Thank you for sharing videos ☺ I like how you are sharing that tea with Musje😆😆💕 She's very cheerful!!🐥 She's so attached to you😆
Hello from Tasmania Australia. I love this video. We are the parents of the late "Spoggy" the sparrow and we still have "Norbu" the sparrow with us (age 9.5 years old). This video does indeed show things that people should take into account before raising a sparrow and allowing it to be part of their everyday life. It can be very messy, poop and feathers everywhere and yes, sparrows love to attack and bite. But as you say, they also reward you with their cuteness. My male sparrow Norbu watched this video and loved it. He does all the things your sparrow does. Love to you both :-)
Thank you for sharing a little story of Norbu 😆💖 Wow you had him for so long! Yeah, they make a huge mess in your house but I don't mind. Im used to her poop now 😂. can't resist her ultimate cuteness!!
It's not putting me of 😊
So sparrow is basically a smol cat..
Omg yes, the best description ever lol 😂😂😂
Yes they are my bird actually likes you rubbing your hands under a blanket and attacks your hands like a cat they are fun!
😂😂😂. My bird can touch me whenever she wants, but I can't touch her or she will pack my fingers so hard lol. She also wants to take everything that's in my hand but she loses interest in that object once she takes it from me. She's evil.
A smol cat with a lifespan of 2 years.
@@emdee31 surprisingly, sparrows live very long in captivity. One of my subscribers has 9yr old sparrow 😲lol. And other person has 7yr old sparrow.
They only get to live 3yrs in wild bc they get eaten or get sick easily.
Hi, SAK-SOON♡
Thank you for your information about keeping a bird out side of a cage.
I feel like I really learned something when I have a bird.
Chilli is so adorable❤
Thank you, Ham! 😆😆😆💖 I hope it helped for your possibly future bird 😆!!!
Omg chilli is so beautiful
Thank you, saul 😀😀😀💕
This is so encouraging, forget the nasty comments, you are doing a fantastic job. Xx
Thank you so much for this kind words, Degs 😭💖 You are so nice 💕💕💕
im not seeing any hate comments on here tho?
Chili has a taste for human blood!!! RUN!
I wish Chili was a little more gentle... She definitely doesn't know that it's painful. 😑
@@SAKSOON ,so does mine she saw a hang nail on my nail before I knew it she was trying to rip it off and she made me bleed lol but she's my beautiful lady I even take her to work with me at night and she rides in my goody fun huh but I work nights and my bird does not let me sleep with out biting the yell out of my ears eyes or my god my lips some say sleep some where else I'm scared she will get lonely!
@@shellierodarmel7282 😂😂😂 omg she used to be like that when I sleep until late! She wouldn't let me sleep so I had to cover up my face with the blankie lol. But nowadays she tries not to bother me anymore unless she needs food desperately. She just sits on me and watch me sleeping. If her bowl is empty, she bites my fingers real hard to wake me up lol.
Ooh, I've never seen a sparrow with white wing tips...adorable😊
Thank you, Shy Cat☺️☺️☺️ Yes, she's a very special sparrow 😃💖
I have three budgies,the wee one is the worst she has destroyed our coven above the window,we have tried everything to stop her but she still outsmarted us,very clever little birds,we have one that talks very well,he likes girls a lot,when a new family member of friend comes in an it s a girl he lands on her shoulder an says"hi,baby", "kids kiss?" but they are so much fun!,all the best from Scotland.
😆😆😆 budgies, smart ones are very very smart!! They are one of my favorite kinds. They are so cute and funny 😍💖
HAHAHA! We just adopted a house sparrow and I'm relieved to see that some of the weird/annoying behaviors aren't just our bird! I've never seen a white-winged sparrow before. Those are beautiful!
That's awesome!! 😃😃😃 Welcome to the crazy sparrow world lol 😂. You will discover how amazing these sparrows are as they age. They become sweeter and more gentle 🥹
Chili had a feather problem when she was found, and it took her a long time to recover. When she started getting new feathers, white feathers came out! She dramatically changed from ugliest to prettiest 😆💕
Aw Chilli is so pure. I have a child named Cricket. He tries to eat my freckles. 😂. I rescued him off the sidewalk in a busy city. He’s so social and he loves to poop on your hand 😂😂! He’s not a good flyer and some of his tail feathers are missing. The plan is to rehabilitate but he’s gotten so attached to me and living an easy inside life. I’m not sure if he’ll want to go. His favorite food is watermelon. I love bragging about his pure personality. 😂😂
😂😂😂 Chili used to try to eat my freckle too 😂😂
Once a baby bird is attached to human, it's not a good idea to release them back to wild. Oh, Chili had a feather problem too. Your birdy doesn't have the tail feather prolly because of the lack of vitamins. If you provide lots of vitamins and protein, he will recover 😀😀😀
I'm looking forward to hear further birdy story 😆💕
SAK- SOON 😊
Mine tells me when he poops (sometimes). I saw a bird and it poops in the toilet, hehehe. The owner taught it.
Wow!! That's very impressive!! What a smart bird xD!
Lol chilli is honestly the cutest, every point that you mentioned in this video was necessary and important to know :)

Hey fellow Sparrow!!!!
My family and I were at the beach today. The sun was shining but the wind was blowing like crazy. I chewed on more twigs and pebbles than I can count. Life is great :D
So cool! I began feeding mealworms to a couple of Mockingbirds, outside, several weeks ago. No sooner had I started, than the Robins & Sparrows began coming to get THEIR share, too! Well, the Robins were like "bullying" the Mockingbirds, even chasing them down & "beaking" them, to get a mealworm away from them. I was surprised... cuz I always thought Robins were very kind & gentle to ALL. So I began shooing the Robins away. But the sparrows... heck, they were SO LITTLE. They would NEVER think of trying to BULLY the 2 dear Mockingbirds! So, I let them hang around & get some mealworms, too. BUT, after a couple of weeks, all of a sudden I'm seeing these cute innocent little sparrows getting "entitled" to ALL the mealworms, & even getting aggressive to Mr & Mrs Mockingbird! I was shocked... hense I'm researching more info about them. I think this was a really good article/video you made!
I really enjoyed your story 😆😆😆💖 Surprisingly, sparrows are actually very aggressive. I bet they would kill everything if they were big lol. They are just too tiny to start a fight with other birds 😂
This is so true for all sparrows. My little dude would piss me off sometimes and I’d have to put em in his cage. He was a little shit head, but I grew to love em.
I think they become mature as they get old. As of today, she's 6 years old, and now she's a lot more gentle and sweeter than before! She knows I feel pain if she pecks me, so she's very careful with her beak around me. She's the sweetest thing ever 🥹💕
@@SAKSOON That is good to hear! Mine was a real troublemaker. But now I know he just wanted my attention.
@@hamiam2659 yes! They may look evil, but they are actually trying to learn how to communicate and love humans ☺️
My sparrow never did that she was very friendly . She flew into my window and broke her wing . I Kept her for 3 months until she could fly agian .The second bird i had was a Jackdaw that i found on my back porch he spent the night than i released him the next day.
You saved 2 birdies 😆! Chili is such a jerk but if you have seen my recent video, she was being super sweet when I was injured 😭💖 . Birds are such great creatures 💕
What a cute bird
Thank you ☺☺☺💕
I have a house sparrow his name is Stolas, he is the cutest bird ever, he is a fledging, i love him so much, i found him when he was a nestling. He’s very sweet, its very rare that he bites, and he cleans his beak on me when he eats, i find that very adorable. Im so glad i found him.
Sparrows are actually very loving birds in their own way 😆💕 I really love my bird, Chili, and I can't imagine myself living without her. I can tell that Stolas will become your soul mate of your life as well (maybe he is already) 😍💖
My boy beat me up for a solid year and a half but he has mellowed out now, thank God haha
Whenever he attacks or bites I ask him to step up on to my finger and try not to flinch away from him if he continues his attack. Mostly to try show him that attacking me won't get him what he wants but at the same time doesn't scare him. Has your girl settled down or does she still attack?
He is the most adorb burd i have ever seen in my life
Thank you ☺💕 Chili is the best little sparrow in the world!
I have a house sparrow. She can be quite the brat, but she is so sweet. Sparrows are a highly underrated birds.
I agree. They are like little tiny cats lol. Sparrows are so cute

I’m keeping a sparrow perfect advise!!😂
Hi. I rescued a sparrow 2 weeks ago, he couldn’t fly and he looked very sick when I found him.
He is already imprinted on me so I can’t release him. I’m going to keep him but I have two cats. Any suggestions or advice? I got him a huge cage and he is very social and cute. He loves eating cat food and veggies. Oh seeds are his favorites too.
How can I tell if he is a boy or a girl?
Thank you for saving the little guy 💓 Cats will attack little bird just for curiosity. It's not a good idea to let your cats access to the room where the bird is. Bird will get stressed a lot if they see predators even from the distance.
Male sparrows are darker colors, they have black part on the head. Females are lighter colors, mostly brown and have lines around their head. Chili is female!
Try to give the birdy seeds and grains! Pallets for small birds(canaries food) is perfect as well🙂🙂🙂 Fresh fruits are great snackies.
Ive taken in wildlife before (normally just long enough to get to a rehabber) but my coworker brought me a day old sparrow whose nest was destroyed and leg injured. He/she is 18 days old now and so rewarding loves giving kisses and wags tail like a dog. My only complaint is the poops are literally as big as his head for some reason 😩 lmao
Awww thank you for taking good care of this little fella🥰. Is the leg injury okay?? Is it getting better?
Yes, baby bird's poop is so huge 😂😂😂.
@@SAKSOON yes the leg is healed and she is otherwise okay! Do sparrows raised from birth have a chance in the wild? I feel like she would be happier free but I also want her to survive..I've never kept/raised wildlife for this long usually it is short term
@@theavidbookworm8361 more likely, they have a very low chance to survive in wild if they are hand-raised. In the house sparrow community, we don't recommend people to release young sparrows. I totally understand that you feel bad if you don't release them, fortunately they can also have a good life with humans as long as you give them lots of love and care. A healthy sparrow in wild can live about 3yrs in wild, but they can live over 10yrs in captivity. They can be great pets 🙂
What a cool video! I apologize if you've answered this question elsewhere, but how did you find sparrows with a leucistic mutation on their wings? It's super pretty but I didn't know you could find it non-randomly in sparrows.
Thank you,, Doug😀😀😀💖
I have no idea lol. Chili was just a normal baby with less feather than other baby birds. She had a feather problem and was going bald. But when she grew up, her feather problem was treated and started getting white feather for some reason. She came from ugliest sparrow to the most beautiful sparrow ☺💕

We found a nestling sparrow in our upstairs hallway today, all our windows were closed and we found the cat playing with it giving us reason to believe she found it outside and brought it inside and she is really caring towards her. Do you have any advice on how to take care of it
Thank you for rescuing little fella☺💖 First of all, you need to keep the baby very very warm. And then you need to feed it every 2 hours at least. You can stop feeding at 11pm since it's prolly gonna go to sleep. But it will wake up around 6am lol. Here's my video on how to make baby bird food: ruclips.net/video/1ztEvmASBCU/видео.html
I also have videos on taking care of baby birds, so please check them out. They are pretty helpful.
@@SAKSOON tysm also what can i keep it warm with? I'd put wool there but am afraid of it choking

Hey! Me and my family found a sparrow laying on the sidewalk with a broken leg. We took it home and put it in my pretty big hamster cage that i am not using yet because I don't have a hamster yet. We used botanical hay as a bedding and gave it some fruits and water. Please tell me if i can do anything to help it out.
Thank you for helping out this poor little birdy ☺💖
Keeping it warm is the most important thing for now. Make sure it eats something. Crushed boiled egg, seeds, a tiny bit of fruit and green veggies would be good since you don't have the proper bird food.
Idk what to do with the broken leg, either. It's something only vets can do 🙁.
@@SAKSOON Thank you! We went out and bought some bird seed, and millets. I also cut some apples he liked. He is jumping around now but my only concern is getting him to fly. Onces he can fly we plan on letting him go. I also want to go to petsmart soon to get some toys to entertain him for the time being. But his leg is so much better and he's so fast jumping around.
@@Ilovemywife110 Wow! Sounds like you are doing great!!😀 That little guy got another chance to live because you helped him 😭😭😭💖 Can he perch on your arm? If he can, let him perch on your arm while you are standing and then drop your arm, or sit down, quickly. It's a good method to teach them how to fly. Not all of a sudden, start slowly and then drop fast. He will use his wings to balance on your arm and will eventually fly. It's a good technique to build up some muscles in wings 🐥
@@SAKSOON Hello! Sorry I haven't replied in a while. A couple weeks after you replied he flew! I let him fly around my room for a bit. I could even pick him up. Then around 2:00 today we let him go. He just sat on the little courtyard windowsill for a bit so we put his toys, food, and water there. Then he flew in a tree and now he's gone. I am happy he's in the wild but a bit sad he's gone. Nevertheless I hope he visits if he's hungry or thirsty.

@@Mr.Kalashnikov47 oh, the food i showed you can be fed to both nestling and fledgling. As long as you feed them something high in protein, it would be good 🙂 Also, providing them vitamins can give them healthy feather development. I'm sure you will do great for the little baby bird ☺☺☺💖

@@SAKSOON thanks ♥️☺️
This comment may be a little late, this was a great video. The only thing I want to point out is that by telling your sparrow to stop when it bites you, you are essentially rewarding it with attention. The best way to discourage biting is to immediately return it to its cage. I know this from multiple years of experience raising multiple different species of bird, sparrows included. Hope this helps, loved the video!
I’m excited about this little sparrow I rescued from work. I named him/her Cororo (from Corona virus lmao) i know it sounds weird but the reason is because today is the lockdown of all flights and travel in my country. 😂 Thanks for this video btw Chilli is so cute hehe
Thank you, Joeislay😃😃😃💖 And that's a great name for such depressing days like this😂😂 How's Cororo doing!? And what kind is that bird??
I hope you stay safe!! Don't go out as much as you can 👍
SAK- SOON thank you! I think he/she is a house sparrow. He’s doing fine, I think he’s three days old since he already has feathers and his eyes almost open.
@@JosephDeLosSantos-t3m Awww it's a little baby!! Don't forget to place him/her in a very warm area and feed at least every 2 hours! One of my videos shows how to make baby bird food and that will help you 😀
SAK- SOON thanks for the tips!
I rescued one months ago. But mine does none of this,. I think she is depressed she doesn’t even have a tail ..might of plucked it out,. I don’t have her caged so she hangs at the window .. not sure what to do
For the tail feather, maybe it needs more nutrients. Please check out the video description and it shows all the product that Chili uses/eats. All animals have different personalities or traits, and your baby might be a shy one.
Make sure to leave her alone and keep the room dark and quiet at around 7pm (5pm for winter) and let her sleep 12hours. Birds need to sleep for 12hrs a day.
Change water and food daily for the freshness. I like using the water bath instead of a water bottle so my bird can take a water bath whenever she wants to take.
And try to keep her company as much as you can. They get bored and lonely 🥺
@@SAKSOON she won’t eat anything I try to give her, she never tried the bath. Always seems scared of me untill night time she goes on her cage and let’s me pet her;. Sometiems she will bite .
@@sniperpaintcorrection Sparrows are like that. They don't let you touch them, but they can touch you lol😂. Birds naturally wants bath when they feel not clean, so just keep shallow water (that goes up to her ankle) near her cage.
Just put the pallets and seed mix in the bowl. She won't be picky when she's hungry lol
I have rescued a sparrow few months ago. She still stays with me and spends most of the time outside with other birds coming back home at night. I’m afraid of winter time. Winter in Connecticut USA can be really harsh. Is she going to be OK with cold outdoor temperatures in winter or is better to keep her inside until spring? Any suggestions? I have to admit that she prefers to be outside during the day.
Winter time is definitely harsh especially for the ones that are facing the new life in wild. However, spring is too far ahead and the bird will get attached to the human, which means that there's a low chance that the bird will survive in wild long enough even if it's warm outside.
If you are planning to release it, it's better to do it now, I feel like..
@@SAKSOON Thank you for your response. I never wanted to keep her. Even if I love her with all my heart, she belongs to nature not me. The plan was to release her as soon as possible. I found her when she was 4 days old and introduced her to life in wild as soon as the 2nd week of her life while still taking care of her all needs. I never wanted her to attach to me. She never liked to be touched or carried which I thought was a great sign. On the other hand, she loves to hang out and play with other birds. Therefore, I let her go outside every single morning hoping that she will stay, but she’s not. She comes back home at the bad time every single evening. She doesn’t want to leave me and her room permanently. I’m OK with it. She will stay as long as she wants to. Only one thing that scares me is winter. I don’t know how to handle it. I can’t find any relevant information on this topic. Everything I see is about pet birds and what temperature is too cold for them. I don’t consider her as a pet bird. Should I let her continue her daily routine of being outside all day long and spending nights inside in winter or it’s better to keep her inside all the time and wait until it gets warmer? I’m assuming there is going to be at least 40-60 degrees Fahrenheit in temperature difference between indoor and outdoor during that time. Will she accommodate to that temp fluctuation between day/ outside and night/ inside? The window in her room is always half way open, but still the temperature inside will be much higher than outside. She started to grow extra feathers already. So, her body prepares itself for cooler temperatures. Nonetheless, I want to be on a safe side. I don’t want her to get sick and die from cold. Thank you for any suggestions!
@@Anita_She I totally understand. If she's not letting you touch her or afraid of you, that's absolutely a good sign. Once you release the bird, you probably want to leave some water and food just in case if she can't find food in wild. She will come back and check out your house if she really can't find anything to eat.
Did she molt for thicker feathers? Wild birds are tougher than birds in captivity. Adult wild birds are capable to survive in cold weather, unless they are sick or injured.
I strongly believe that your bird will survive since the bird has been communicating with other bird friends and already been exposed to outside world. Just introduce her food that she can find outside such as seed and fruits. Try to not interact with her as much as possible. She must not get attached to you. If she does, there's a high chance that she will approach to random people to look for food and attention.
Try to release it soon. Earlier is better for the bird so she can learn and get used to the wildlife before it gets too cold.
You are such a nice person. Thank you so much for caring and giving the little birdy another chance to live💕 Good luck to you and the little birdy😄
@@SAKSOON 🙏🏼💝
The sparrow fledgling my family recently rescued doesn't seem to like flying out of its cage, refuse to eat unless it's on our hand, and prefers drinking from straw instead of the water dish oddly. Should I be worried that it's relying so much on us?
We're trying to teach it to eat on its own tho somehow I have a feeling it might think my fingers are food. 😂😂😂
Thank you for helping the little birdy 💕
Please check out my video on "how to make baby bird food" and you need to force feed it if it's not opening its mouth. Press each side of the beak gently with your index and thumb and it will open the mouth. Feed it every 2 hours from 6am to 10pm (if the baby goes to sleep earlier around 8pm due to the darkness, you can just leave it sleeping).
Please don't give bird water unless it's on the shallow plate that goes up to half of its legs. Moisture in the food should be enough for the baby. Water shouldn't be fed to the baby because it might go through the respiratory system, which can cause death. If you give it fresh water daily in a plate, it will eventually learn how to drink and bath on its own as time goes by.
Are you thinking about releasing the baby? It's actually better to take the baby to a wild bird rehab (they take down baby sparrows if they are sick, but if it seems healthy, they will take care of it and release it to nature) because babies can be attached to humans so easily and won't be able to survive for long in wild.
If you put seeds on the ground, the baby will play with it and eventually learn how to eat them on its own as well.
I hope this will help you and the little birdy 🙂🙂🙂💖
@@SAKSOON Thank you so much for all the information! I was thinking about releasing it once it can eat/find food on it's own, unless it gets attached to us then we don't mind having an extra member to our family. But I'll look into wild bird rehab for it, it seems like a better choice for the bird long term.
Ahhhh D: i'm so sad, I just tried to recuse a baby sparrow and he just passed away from me but within the short 2 days of having him I fell in love, I blame myself even though it was quite sick and in rough condition when I found him by his lonesome. R.I.P. broke my heart
Please don't blame yourself 🥺. You did your best to save this little life 💕. Like you said, he was already sick and there was nothing else you could do 😔. Thank you for trying hard. You are a really nice person 🥺💖.
Rip, little friend..!! Fly high🌈🕊
i just got 4 sparrows (they grew up in and were bred in captivity so they cant survive in the wild) but they are very skittish and untrusting any advice?? also what can they eat besides seeds, like what kinds of fruit?
Yup, they are worse than cats lol. Chili doesn't let me touch her, but she touches me lol. And she also gets suspicious of everything and anything red (she freaks out when I'm in a red shirt 😂). I guess it's because they are originally from wild although they are raised by human.
They can eat anything! I give my sparrow fresh fruits, such as apple, pear, mango, etc. But don't give them too much fruits because they will get diarrhea since fruits contain lots of water. A tiny piece would be good (size of your index fingernail).
Sometimes I give her a very tiny piece of crackers and breads (must be blend, no chocolate, no chunks of sugar, no stronf seasoning) just to let her enjoy some new taste.
ty for replying i've got one more question, how long do they live? everything i've read says something different
@@val2kool that's actually one question I have lol. I tried to look for the answer but I couldn't find it. Sparrows in wild live only up to 3yrs because of predators and eating bad stuff. But the lifespan of sparrows in captivity is very longgg. From what I researched, we are talking about 23yrs max lol. One of my subscribers has 7 years old and 6 years old sparrows and they are still very healthy and young looking.
Lol he is so adorable 😍😍😍
Thank you ☺☺☺💖
So one with house sparrows?
Hi! I would like to know chili's diets as my 9months old sparrow sometimes very picky about veggies and worms (he is scared of worms), I wish to see what else can I add to his diet to keep him healthy ♥️♥️
Chili only eats pallets, egg food, and seed mix. Sometimes fruits and veggies as snacks. If you check out the video description, you can see all the products that Chili uses. 😉
I have a question, I rescued a fledgling Sparrow 2 weeks ago and I want to know how do I get it to start eating on its own and will it survive without me feeding it, will it survive without me, I want to realease it but, I don't want it to starve to death, thank you
I had the exact same concern! I started training the bird by putting tiny tiny flower seeds on the floor of the cage (I covered the floor with a layer of paper towels). The baby bird will be curious about it and will start packing. Then I got little snacks for canary called Sunburst Gourmet Fruit & Veggies which contains millet, sesame,flax, papaya, carrots, etc. Put it in a bowl and let the bird play with it. The bird will naturally start eating them slowly. I hope this will help you and your little birdy 😀💕
Hi sak soon it's me 😁 I have a question. What kind if seed do you feed chili ?
I give her mixed grains and seeds! White millet, red millet, grass seed, wheat, and oat groat. Sometimes 1-2 sunflower seed for a snack (I have to peel it off for her since she's too small and weak to break the shell lol xD!)
@@SAKSOON thanks so much
No problem, Nina! ⭐
Love it!!!!!!
Thank you, Joey😀😀😀💕
I’ve been feeding my sparrow the proper foods, but she’s been loosing ALOT of feathers, not from pulling them out, but she’s also lost a lot of her tail feathers, is there something else I could feed her or give her for nutrients. Or even a certain brand of seeds
Check the video description💕 I have links there for supplies and supplements! 🙂🙂🙂
@@SAKSOON Thankyou! I went to the store today to buy those fruity pebbles, Lucky loved them !
That's awesome 😆💕 I love that product so much! Birds love fruity flavors 🍓🍎🍊🥭
Depending on the age it could just be annual molting
Beautiful 😃
Thank you, param 😀😀😀💕
Hey please tell me what to do if feathers are not growing well??
Check out the vitamin supplement on the video description! 🙂🙂🙂
@@SAKSOON and it's too thin...
At 4:08 did you make a video for the magikarp hide out??
🤫🤫🤫🤫
The video on it might be uploaded on Saturday 🤭
SAK- SOON I will make sure to watch it!
Yayyyy 😃😃🙌🙌🙌
If you do what kind of cage do you keep it in
A huge cage, as big as possible, if you don't want them to roam around in your room. It's better to let it free in your room or it will get stressed out easily.
@@SAKSOON thank you so much I recently got a sparrow and want the best life for it possible
@@SAKSOON one more question does she recognize her name when you call her? How did you do it?
@@jadenlopez6563 If you are letting her roam around the room, the cage size doesn't really matter. Chili has a tiny cage but I leave the top of my bird cage open all the time and she uses it as her own 'room' to sleep in, rest, eat, and bath.
Chili does recognize her name. She looks at me or flies to me when I call her name. You just need to call your bird's name repeatedly and give it delicious treats 🙂.
I found a sparrow in my front yard it still tiny and I’m gonna to let it go and be free after it gets big!😊is that a good idea ?+I’m giving him food it’s doing very good,some times it tries to escape from the cage is that normal?and I’m felling so bad but I can’t get it out I’m sure it’s gonna be a good meal for cats😬😅i hope u answer 💗some times when I’m feeding it it sleep on my hand 😅
Make sure you don't get bonded with the bird☝️ The bird must not get used to humans or it will die early in wild. No interaction at all except the feeding time! Once it gets used to eating on its own, that's when you can release him. Try to feed him something you can find outside because it won't know what to eat when it's free. Also, try to play the house sparrow songs on your phone often, so it can learn its own language 😀💕
SAK- SOON I’m so happy that u answered me and I’m gonna follow what u said💕
@@rawanemad2796 Thank you for saving this little birdy's life 😊💖
Where did you get that sparrow from
She fell from the nest and rescued. She had some feather problem until she was fully grown up.

Can we switch on the fan in sparrow room ?
Yes, just some cool air isn't bad for birds when it's hot!
Mine is still a fledgling. Tummy is fluffy.
Finger nibbler and comes when called :)
Kodai-Kun
Awww!! That's such a cute name☺☺☺💖 You will be his great mom 😀💓
Is yours wild mine yes
hehehe, wow, he/she is vicious. Mine is super shy. Mine would never bite me.
I wish Chili was chill like that lol. She thinks I'm a butler to her 😣
@@SAKSOON. I wonder how your Chili would react if you get a budgie. Will Chili stop pooping on you and start playing with a new bird? I might get a bird soon and so i wonder how my bird will react to the new one.
@@SAKSOON . My bird used to fly off my finger when I walked up/down stairs. He almost hit the edge one time and I got so mad and yelled at him. After that he never did it again. Also one time he flew off my finger and tumble down the stairs. Oh, I got mad and yelled at him. Now he never does it again. He chirps to let me know when he's hungry, thirsty, poops and wants go to to bed. If he wants my attention and doesn't like me talking on phone, he starts kissing me several times. Before I would take him to bed at 5p.m. and when I walk upstairs, he turns around and kisses me. Before bed, I make him kiss me 2x before going to bed and of course I kiss him back 2x on his back.
In the Summer, I would put him down in the kitchen and then tell him to go home. He runs down hallway, past family room, to sunroom, and then climbs up his perch and get into cage. Now I teach him to fly so that his wing muscles get stronger. I count 1, 2 (he crouch down) and then 3, he flies off finger. Or when I say "fly", he flies.
Awww your bird is so sweet!! What kind of bird is it? I don't think house sparrows are not that smart, just like Chili lol. Chili isn't trainable at all. All she can do is yelling back at me when I yell at her for doing bad things lolol. She even pecks her own tail just because she doesn't like it and get angry at it. So I assume Chili isn't a smart bird :l
@@SAKSOON. When I first got him, I was afraid he might not be the right bird. He won't let me pet him, he doesn't talk, doesn't play. Now I'm so connected to him. When I go outside for several hours, I tell him "Rainbow, I have to go shopping eg: walmart, 99c store, target, etc., and I'll be back in 1 or 2 hrs ok. He listens to me. I say goodbye to him so that he knows I'm leaving and doesn't think I'm at home. He sits on his perch. Doesn't wander around and have me worried that someone might step on him or gets lost/killed. When I come back, he's still on his perch outside the cage. People say "oh, don't put your finger into cage". Ehhh, wrong. Mine, the moment I put finger in there, he jumps on finger and have me take him out. Now I take him outside. W/ his good eyes, he can see hawks and predators before I do.
I found a sparrow with it's eye swollen shut. We are taking care of it but we do not know what is wrong. Does anyone know what that could be
There are many things that can cause eye swelling. It might bc of infection, maybe vitaminA deficiency, etc. Vet visit is the best way to treat the birdy 😣
I have a sparrow named kiwi
Awwwh! What a cute name 😀😀😀💖💖💖 I'm sure your sparrow is super cute too! 💕
Does she let you pet/groom her? Or is she like a sassy cat?
Haha I wish!!! She's worse than a sassy cat 😂😂😂
My cat just broutgh home a sparrow that is alive u thik my cat just bit his wing no bite wound on the body i have it in a box v bird seeds and some bread and a blanket so wish me luck
Awh poor birdy😭 Thank you for taking care of the bird💕. I hope the bird gets well soon.
@@SAKSOON mee too and bdw i lovee chilli so much
How you get the sparrow?
I rescued her 😄. She was an abandoned baby with feather problems.
I recuse a sparrow when lam attending online classes she will make trouble like this 😁😁🐦
Awww little cutie pie is trying to get attention from the owner! 😁😁😁💖
How come you don't put paper towel in the nest so that it's easier to clean when she poops. I was thinking of getting a canary. I might end up getting a budgie. Breeder has found a baby budgie and very tame.
Oh, I don't use that nest anymore. I gave her a bottle with a sock in it and she likes it more lol. I tried to put a paper towel in the next, but she pulls it out as soon as I look away 😂
I wanna get bigger birds, too. but I don't think Chili will be happy to share the same space with other creatures lol
My bird can get bitchy too she's by herself and its spring and she seems aggravated
Lol I guess it's some kind of trait that female sparrows have
heat?
@@OrganicTrash it's just girls are like that 😂
How to trap and tame wild sparrow??
Chili had a feather problem until she became fully grown. There's no way she could survive in wild since she's too attached to human. Plus she got white feathers unlike normal sparrows, which makes her the first target for hawks. Please watch my other videos. Thank you 🙂
wow that's hilarious that it will chase the mouse cursor on the screen. I want to keep one as a pet, but isn't there a concern about virus/disease? these critters aren't exactly meant to be our domestic buddies.
She was a rescue as a baby, and she had some feather issues until she grew up. Not all wild animals carry diseases, especially when they are young.
It's better to let wild rescue handle any animals in help and release back to nature. However, sparrows are considered invasive pest, so rescues wouldn't take care of them. I have a video in my channel talking about this stuff when I rescued Chili!
Popping by to say you are a bit misinformed on the diet. Whilst its great to have fresh fruit and veggies in their diets they are actually grain birds, so they mainly will eat oats, seeds and bread products. Mine loves soft wheat tortillas!
Grains and seeds are Chili's basic daily meal 😆 I'm saying birds can also enjoy fresh fruit and veggies as snacks. Chili would choose to eat them instead of bread and tortillas lol. Idk about other birds, but that's her taste preference 😂😂😂. She actually doesn't like tortilla and bread, or any other blend and dried food 🤔. I know, it sounds weird for a bird lol but that's Chili 😂😂😂
i got new born sparow in the street i picked it and care of it when she got fly she gone i dont know where 🤭
That's very nice of you☺️💖. Thank you for saving a little birdy's life! I'm sure she feels thankful to you whenever and wherever she is! 😊💖

Hey atleast u can make a pillow out of his molted feathers that’s one thing u can get besides eggs
Unfortunately, it will take me many many years to collect good enough feathers to make a pillow 😂😂😂
SAK- SOON lol yes 😂😂😂😂😂

@@kazuki_setsunai103 wow!! That's actually an awesome idea! It's gonna be a bread house 😂😂😂. It will be eaten by a hammy within a minute 😂😂😂😂. I'll keep that in mind!!!
SAK- SOON lol yeah I remember making a paper mache house and my hamster started to eat it it was made out of cornstarch and water with the toilet paper it was light and a bit to small so my hammy kept moving it around XD
Where can we buy sparrows
Noooo, you can't buy sparrows. I rescued her when she was a baby because she was abandoned by her mommy bird 🙁
Number 4 is probably the biggest concern for most people.
I really hope birds can do potty train. My room is becoming way to dirty now 😫😫😫
Instinct for birds to eliminate before flight. Especially upon exiting the nest. So, not likely able to train them otherwise.
If that happend to me it would be cooking time
I am in India. How can I buy myself a sparrow? Please reply
You can't buy a wild bird 🙈. My Chili was rescued when she was baby and she had feather problem until she's fully grown up.
Thank you for the information ❤️
Wow. Imagine having a hawk.
Lol I don't think it's a good idea to have a hawk 😂
@@SAKSOON a lot of people do though
Not in the room!! 😭
@@SAKSOON they let them fly around somtimes, but they put them in a cage for the night
Yeah. Hawks are kool.
Tip, don't wiggle your fingers to the bird they get angry
Yup😂😂😂 They will attack your finger 🤦♀️
You didn't give us valuable information about birds...
🥰🥰🥰
Every sparrow I’ve raised had different personalities but the biters and peckers got the tip of their beak rounded off with a nail file.
I rescued a female sparrow good fun
Whats their life span ?
I'm not so sure. Life span for sparrows in wild is about 2 years, but the longest ever lived sparrow in the record was 16yrs lolol. One of my subscribers has 7yr and 6yr old sparrows and they are still looking healthy and young. So,,, idk 😂
@@SAKSOON 16 years Damn!!
Can you pet Chili🤔
@iancastillo6871 only when she allows 😂 When she feels like getting loved, she begs for attention, and that's when I can pet her lol
@@SAKSOON luckkyyy my birdie just pecks at me and only wants food😒she does like me tho
@iancastillo6871 I think they get more mature as they get older and more understanding of humans. Chili can understand a few sentences and words and reacts to them. She gets excited when she hears food words such as "snackie" or "seeds," lol. She also knows "I love you" and "go to sleep." It's really heartwarming to see her reaction after she understands what I say. 🥺💖
Lol 😂
Ha ha ha we should become poop sisters my bird shitzzles every where puppy pads are needed!
I had to cover the entire floor with paper towels because her poop leaves stain on the carpet. I also have extra layer of blanket to cover my bed and it's covered in poop lol.
She needs a friend
I was thinking about it too. But I heard sparrows are vicious to other birds, so I'm afraid to get another bird for her lol
Get chewie a new bird friend.
I'm afraid that she will pack her bird friend lol. I really wanna get her a friend, but she's too mean to other creatures.
I think my house sparrow, Cricket, would love a friend. However, I wouldn’t buy a sparrow. I only rescue birds I see that need help because of my parents. and even if I were to adopt, or buy, sparrows are not really common house pets.
They might be pests but dont call them evil.
Thats why they like to play duhhh
