Honestly his beak makes him look like a grumpy old man to me and I love it
Ikr :3
Im currently keeping one and whenever i look at him he just seems mad at me while screeching for food
I have one right now also, actually second one, they do get attached to you, I love to watch their own lil personalities come out.....
I have one I am raising right now that was found on someones porch during a wind storm and mom and nest couldnt be found. We call him Angry Bird lol.
For everyone commenting that you find these in your backyards as young, please leave them there unless they're hurt. This is how baby mockingbirds learn, they have a few day to week long period where they are on the ground learning to fly while their parents occasionally feed them.
I would have, but the mom was no where and he was just randomly on the ground when we got back in the car (bout an hour) the mother never swooped us and was no where to be found. I think his leg was hurt he could not move that well.
@@jacksonhathcock3377 Then yes you did the right thing! :)
@@squishypuddle7302 thank you! He should be healthy and ready to fly in a week😁
What if you have a dog that if you didn’t get to it first the dog would’ve? 🙂🙂🙂
Yes thats true!
Caution if you have dogs or cats who kill baby fledglings.
We have a cat who adopted us and there is about 8 other rescued and some feral cats that hang out in the neighborhood. I found one of the fledglings alive trying to learn how to survive with the help of the mother and father bird. I found 2 of the baby fledglings chewed in several pieces on the ground due to the feral cats killing them.
In such cases as this, please rescue them if you have this problem or they will def8nitely most likely be killed.
I had mine for around seven years. Never knew birds could have such a rich personality before I owned mine. These things are like the embodiment of anger its hilarious.
Do you still have it!??
We recently rescued a baby, but not sure what's the best course of action is... my so really wants to keep him as a pet
@@raw_oysteris the baby eating? you kinda gotta force its mouth open and they'll prolly eat. I fed mine catfood like every 2 hours, 24/7, it was awful 😂
If you're gonna keep it it's like... LONG TERM (20yrs). honestly I would not do it again (or recommend it). Cages are horrible so mine roamed free around the house. But that meant that there was bird poop everywhere. He's been dead for five or so years now and I still find bird poop in the house. Mine lived to seven years but was killed by a visitor coming over our house. He was resting ontop of the bathroom doorway and the dude slammed the door full power for some stupid reason. The bird died instantly. I'm actually really thankful for that because idk what I would have done if the bird was on the floor screaming in pain, injured.
Anyways, they're actually pretty low maintenance pets, besides the birdpoop. Mine knew how to eat from the bowl of mealworms himself lol. But, imo, you can't leave them alone all day if you work. I live in a household where somebody is always home, in the kitchen usually, to provide entertainment to the bird. And throughout bird's life, I still felt like the poor guy wasn't satisfied with the cage (entire house) he was stuck in. I honestly felt really bad, especially during mating season, when he would scream at the window for hours, deep into the night, not getting any sleep and constantly freaking out because he's in heat. Once we went to Disneyland and left the bird alone in the house for a week. When we came back he looked horrified. Legit acted different, he fell into a deep depression. You can tell when they're depressed because they're dead silent. No singing or chirping from the guy for weeks.
Overall, my recommendation is no, you probably shouldn't keep him as a pet. This comes from my belief that a house is not a big or complex enough environment to keep a bird entertained in.
Are mockingbirds easy to keep alive? Yes. Am I confident that the bird which I saved would've had a shittier life in the wild? .. No.. Not really. And I put a lot of effort in.
Let me know what you decide on and please update me sometime. This is the longest I've spent on a youtube comment in a long time haha.
When he jumped in the cereal I was like 😳
That is soooooo cute and heartwarming to watch! Wonderful lady who raised that little featherball 👏❤️👍🦜! Each time there are stories like this, I’m so glad that there are so many loving and caring people out there! Thanks to the lady with those nice fingernails, to share this story! My eyes got wet, when I saw the little birdie sleep in her hand...😍
Legs has brought a tear to my eye... he was so sweet... I always say the saddest day of my life was when my mockingbird "Peeps" passed away. We didn't release him (like some other ones we rescued) because it was a very bad fire season, super smokey and hot. So for maybe ~13 years, we made each other happy. Peeps would always sing along when I played my harp hehe, and he loved whistling the Andy Griffith theme. He could be fiesty too sometimes! It's been over 5 years, still I miss him so much...
Aww :"0 this birdo is so adorable! i luv all of the clips and ur a good mum uwu💞💗💞💗💞💗💗💞💗💞💗💞💗💞💗💗💞💗💞💗💞💗💞💗💗💞💞💗💞💗💗💞💞💗💗💞
Watching this after the one I found passed this morning. Found it in the middle of the yard two days ago. It was just on the verge of storming so I took it in instead of letting it get rained on. Was somewhere between Nestling and Fledgling. It’s so cool to see them grow up and be so used to humans. Makes me wish I could’ve stopped mine from going 😭
Aww, i am so sorry to hear that about your Mockingbird. :'(
@@lizzardsblackrose It happens. I think he just accidentally got a little too warm. We also have some chicks that are under a heat lamp in one of our spare rooms, so I put the box the Mockingbird was in next to theirs so it could move to the other side if it got too cold.
I too have rescued Robin's. Many cats in the neighborhood.After weeks of caring for them, the hardest thing was releasing them back into the trees. In the following spring, the same family came back to nest in the same tree. Folklore has it, Robins carry the spirits of our deceased love ones. I look foward to seeing these Robins come to my back yard.
They're so cute and so bold. Such a smart animal. It would be so difficult to let him go.
Found 2 earlier today but left them alone for a few hours hoping the mother would come back but when I came back they were still there so i decide to take them in before it got dark and now they are doing so good this video is just adorable 🥺💗
itz that random person do you feed them at night ? How often? I got one bird today
put videos of them
i have 2 babeis
please what kind of food do u give them
@@thomasbarlow3613 live meal worms, mushed berries sometimes. Depends on the bird, the beak shape is a good indication of its diet
@@thomasbarlow3613 I give mine baby parrot mix it has everything a young bird needs to survived and he seriously loves it you can get it from petco for literally 16$
most people give them live worms and stuff but the parrot mix has worms and other vitamins as well so it’s honestly in my opinion a little better
Thanks for posting this. We currently have 3 baby mocking birds in our Canary Palm tree that look about ready to leave the nest. You took very good care of Legs. Nice work!!
I lost him yesterday 😢 found him by my garbage cans left him screaming for the day . That evening I scooped him up and brought him him . (feed 6 strays and have possums in the yard) feed him wet cat food every few hours and mom would bring him berries a couple times a day . Had him 5 days . The sixth he wasn't screaming in the morning and wouldn't eat tried all day and even mom couldn't get him to eat . That evening he passed in my hands . don't know what happened. I buried him in the large flower pot were I put him for mom to feed . Its been 2 days and shes still bringing berries and leaving them . I'm so sad . Every animal I've ever saved lived a full life . Don't know what happened 😢
awww him da baby... this is just too sweet... i love the way they stretch their wings to show them off
We just had two fall out of the tree due to high winds... parents are still close by and feeding them as we are.. I just want Rambo and hop scotch to survive... thanks for your vid!!!
Obviously this is too late to be of help, but if you know the birds fell out (rather than jumping out) you can put them back in their nest; touching them will not prevent the parents from taking care of them, that's just a myth.
LOVE THIS VIDEO! So cute & precious & awesome gettin to WATCH THEM GROW/DEVELOP!!! Great video! Thanks for posting!
This bird is just too adorable 💗💗
Omg Legs is so cute I've fallen in love with him. I got a major case of the Warm Fuzzies watching this video. I've had parakeets finches I think Mocking birds are Awesome. Thank you for this video🐦🐥🐤🐣❤🐓
I I absolutely loved your video. I rescued a mockingbird earlier this summer and it reminded me so much of my little Grumplestiltskin. Thanks so much for sharing!
This is so nice! I found a baby one on my front patio. He was hungry and the mom was no where and I didn’t know what specie this bird was until I looked up for Texas birds and i instantly found it. Thank you for sharing this video is very helpful since I didn’t know how to feed him or what thank you!
Wow. What a transformation. He’s amazing. I love the way he is using his instinctual nature. Like his wing work and his preparatory stall. So cool. But touching live worms??? I give u and your awesome nails credit.
My cat just brought a young mocking bird into the yard. About the same size yours when you first found him. So thanks for posting this video! It gives me hope he will live. I gave mine warm water soaked chick protein feed since I have chickens. And meal worms too. Thank you!
Please take them to a rehab or exotic vet next time! The pasturella bacteria in cats saliva will kill them everytime 😔
If you release him when he’s old enough I’m sure he’ll do fine in the wild, plus he’ll come back to visit you every year.
I just found one of these babies in my back yard... His mom has been checking on him.. And feeding him..
I cant keep on him 24/7 ... 😞
Has legs been released into the wild or anything or is he still with you?
Also it was heroic and amazing of you to save a bird like him, my parents would probably force me to leave it there :(
So cute! A nice story. He’s lucky to have found you.
You: This is my cereal, not yours!
Legs: takes his revenge*
Legs: jumps in cereal(him: >:D)
You: No! That was my cereal XD!
Me: wholesome moments!
Good Lord, everybody on here has a baby Mockingbird prisoner. Are there any left in the wild?
I am on my second MB rescue. The first one went really well, one day he took off and I would only see him every once in a while but a month later he landed on my chair, hung out for about 2 minutes and have not seen him since. Our current rescue is a fledgling still, he is running around in our backyard, probably needs another week or so before she leaves.
I was going to get ice cream with my cousins, and then I see this bird dragging it’s wings (a old fledgling mocking bird). Two teenagers passed the poor bird and yanked it away with some kind of thing they had, (I think it was a purse) so I picked up the bird and kept it home until it healed, I went outside to let it go…it didn’t want to leave. I waited a few minutes, trying to scare it away, it just flew closer to me and my mom said it wants to be with me.. so it’s my pet now 💕💕❤️💕
The world would be better with more people like you.
I just rescued a lost hungry mockingbird & we are on day 2 now. so far everything is good. but I noticed he has many tiny little bugs crawling all over him. Does anyone happen to know what those might be? if I read it right, I think they are mites. they look like a brownish color and barely visible but you can certainly spot them. Also I got mite spray for birds just in case, any advice on how to use it? I am so scared to even spray it on him because of certain reactions.
I had one of these for a while it sadly pasted away two days ago I'm watching this crying
Sorry to hear how long do mocking birds live for ?
So cute. I just rescued 2 baby starlings. I've got video of it all too.
How do you know when the bird has eaten enough?
"he knows how to use them"
A lucky bird, he found a good momma!!!
how did you get him to start eating on his own?
Legs is such a cute birb
That's so adorable
So adorable.
Hey my step dad found a baby mockingbird on the side walk its around the side of that one and sounds just like that so is there any tips I've never taken care of one before
I have a question how many times do you feed him and how many mealworms?? Pls answer I just rescued one
Any advice on rasong and weaning a mockingbird?
Such a great video, thank you !
Awhwhhh legs is so cuteeee!!!
So adorable :)
My question is how do I get it to trust me I found one and took it in and it doesn’t want to eat and I’m very worried
Found a fledgling this morning kicked from the nest. It'll be the second one I've raised. It's very therapeutic to raise them
did he use a heat source while he was small?
Great job raising him
i havent finished watching yet but has he learned to fly?
Do they need heat at the fledgling age
Adorable Baby ❤️❤️❤️
Very nice video. I am too raising a baby mocking bird right now. He was the same size and age as yours was when i found him on the ground. He is now a month since i found him and his tail is an inch and a half long now. I am trying to get him to eat on his own right now. Still need more time i think. But your videos of legs are so cool. He is so attached to you. The one i have still seems pretty wild and afraid of me at times. I see you let legs outside and explore. I know if i let mine out like that, he would defiantly fly away. He doesn't like me holding him in my hands like legs would let you do. Maybe you spent more time with him everyday as i am very busy working during the day so i don't get to spend much time with him as i would like to. So what ever happened to legs? Do you still have him?
I just found 1its just like yours few days old eating cat food like crazy very healthy. I named it "lemmy" from motorhead
Hello . My son is raising two at the moment that fll down a tree. a week ago. For how long did you have it? Did it eventually fly away? Sorry for so many questions. Where did you buy the worms? God bless you.
Hi, wow that's awesome! Are they starting to eat on their own? If you can if you have a safe place to leave them outside without cats you can start leaving them out for a while so they can learn how to live outside and bring them back in when ever you need to until they want to stay outside. I had mine for a bit longer than a month. I buy my worms at Petco, petsmart and my favorite place to get them Ebay. you can get 1000 for around $40 that will last a long time.
@@lizzardsblackrose how did you get him to eat on his own? 💗
@@tojoinbobdylan Offer food in a dish, they will soon get the hang of self feeding.
what did she give him to eat?
Cute bird c:
Aww how cute! Did he ever fly away?
Today my mom called me frantically to her window and I had to rush outside because crows were attacking a little one…I named him Dio after a band I like.
This was so cute I have a nest in my backyard
Mine is 4 days with me. Already perching and stretching the wings. I want to release it when it can fly. But idk how to do it safely. It must be able to get food by itself. Any suggestions?
DON'T DO IT!!!! My hubby found a baby Mockingbird in the middle of the road, under a cat's paw almost 4 days ago??? (just like you!!!) and to be perfectly honest, it can NEVER be safely released back to the wild and here's why: Out there is SERIOUS business... from foraging for food in the right places, at the right times of the year, to protection from danger, what is danger, where is safe, what does safety means, etc, etc etc.... These are things only MOM could possibly teach. You as a human could only teach him love, and that your hand means food, protection and comfort. Birds imprint on humans after a little while (as you probably have already noticed) and that means that he sees you as MOM, he looks to you for safety, for food, for comfort. He believes he's human just like you. And there is nothing you can do to change that. There is a reason why all and every single wild life authority tells people "Don't pick any baby animal up from the wild, you will not be saving it". If you picked it up, and i'm sure there must have been some imminent danger you saw fit to save it from, it's ok. Just know that you just got yourself a life commitment until that animal is grown and old age. Please take this from experienced, wild animal people aka rehabilitators. We've been doing this for a while. In order to release any baby animal safely, it must be done a certain way where the animal doesn't see you as the provider... and STILL it is no guarantee that it will survive afterwards because of the reasons i told you at the beginning. Mom is the only one that could possibly teach her young how to survive out there. So welcome to the world of foster permanent moms.🥰
You need to take it to a permitted wildlife rehabber, it's a federal crime.
So sweet!!!
What did you feed him as a baby !? I have one . Thank you
Hi! You can feed it Purina kitten kibble. Put the kibble water to moisten, before you feed make sure you dap it with a paper towel to prevent aspiration. For insects you can feed mealworms, before you feed cut off head. You can also give it some small pieces of blue berries, raspberries, and apple. Message me on Instagram at lizzardblackrose if you need any more advise.
Hey I got one in my patio. Found it last night on my walk. I got dried meal worms, can I moisten them and feed it to him? Hes in a basket I filled with dried grass in one of my trees. Hoping he doesnt imprint. One of your commenst suggested Wet kitty kibble ? I feed it wet cornmeal but he needs protein
Hi, how is the bird doing now? Is the bird a hatchling, nestling, or fledgling? And yes, put the mealworms in water to moisten them. Just make sure they aren't too wet before feeding. If you can it would be better for the bird if you feed it live mealworms. You can get them from petsmart or petco cut off the heads when feeding, You can also give it moist cat food (make sure it not too watery just mushy, if its too watery there could be a chance of aspiration.) They can also have raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and banana.
@@lizzardsblackrose thanks for replying! He spent the second night in my patio. I believe he's a fledgling. He has plenty of feathers and hops around all day but doesnt fly yet. I let him in the garden and surpervise from the window. I give him wet cat kibble now. I gave him wet cornmeal the first night because I had nothing. Can he eat worms and bugs I find? Im sure it has to be mushed first🤢 lol. But thanks for tips!
@@emblem9242 Okay, that means their a fledgling. That's good because they will be much easier to care for than a younger bird. And that could probably be okay. If killed first before feeding they don't need to be mushed. If you can Mealworms would be much better. The problem with earthworms is that they can give the birds parasites that could harm them. Heres some info i found about it. www.purplemartin.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19273#:~:text=Earthworms%2C%20also%20carry%20a%20parasite,as%20well%20as%20adult%20birds.&text=Gapeworm%20eggs%20can%20also%20be,that%20naturally%20feed%20on%20Earthworms.
@@lizzardsblackrose thank you so much!!!
I just fed him blueberry and moist kitty kibble. How spaces out should the feesings be ? I read 3 hours in betweeb. I only give a bit at a time. Like tspn or 2 max
I just found one in my porch …
Just like your when you started
the video …
Btw no sign of the parents .
Only few stray cats around
The side of my house curiously watching.
How many times did you start off feeding him ?
And how many servings should I offer?
Thank you
Hiiii I rescued a baby one and he's stinking cute.... Where do you buy his food I've just been feeding mines berries and bread....He likes Waterbury though lol...
Don’t feed bread, not that good for them, you can feed soft cat or dog food mashed up, crush egg shells up like powder (but first put in oven @ 220 for 20 minutes, this kills salmonella), add a tad bit to the food, miss it up well, when it gets full, will stop eating, you can also feed boiled eggs chopped up, raw liver cut in tiny pieces, even mill worms chopped up....
Took a tiny fledgling in three days ago. It has what appears to be a broken leg and toe. We let it out two times a day. Mother and father come and feed it. Then we take it in, so cats don't get it. We feed him kitty chow mixed with mealworm and egg. I don't know what to do about his poor let. A vet won't treat a wild bird and the national wildlife sanctuary here has always put anything we find down. Don't want that to happen to him. Any advice?
Hi, do you have a Instagram you can message me at? I can reply to you quicker on there and you could send me pictures. Heres a link to mine. instagram.com/lizzardblackrose/
That's mess up shows they don't care
cuuuuteee
Just saved one from my yard..he looks like a old grumpy man n i love him..we named him Oliver...but he wont open his mouth to eat..so i have to gently open it n put the worms in
He is so sweet
Ant suggestions?
Hi, how long have you had them? Have they started to eat for you? And i would suggest feeding them moist cat food (not wet just mushy ) Berries like blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, some banana, and live Mealworms with heads cut off.
@@lizzardsblackrose thank u
Just a day now
I didn't know i was suppose to cut the heads off the worms
How should i give them water? Dropped ..small dish?
Thank u so much
@@cynthiamarie136 Are they a hatching, nestling or fledgling? If their a fledgling they should have feathers, eyes open, and walking around. You should ONLY offer water through a dish and let them drink it themselves when their ready. NEVER force them to drink water that will aspirate and kill the bird and they'll die.
Np, if you have any more questions just let me know.
did you let them out? i let mine yesterday. I guess it wouldn’t come back even for food.
There is 2 eggs in our front yard and i need to know how to take care of it. Have any tips? The mom and dad abandon i... i think!
I'm not sure, i've never hatched eggs before. All i know is you would need a incubator so they can stay warm. What do the eggs look like? Also if you want to check if their still alive put them next to a flashlight if you see red veins their still alive.
@@lizzardsblackrose They are blue-green eggs with dots on them
So cute ! I am raising one too…
Hi,
I found a baby Mockingbird in my garage this morning , it is hungry what kind of food i can give the baby bird
Hi, if you have a instagram could you message me there? It would be easier for me to respond than on RUclips. My instagram is lizzardsblackrose.
I just came on RUclips looking for info on mockingbird fledglings, because we have one! She lost her parents and we started caring for her about 2 days ago. She’s about at the stage Legs is at around the 7 minute mark. It’s so rewarding! She stays outside but we bought a cage to keep her safe at night, but explores the neighbor yard during the day, and she comes to me when I call her to come eat (which is a lot!!). She LOVES to sleep in my hands or my sweat shirt hood, and especially loves snuggling at night! We are feeding her the same things you are. :) How long did Legs stay with you, and did he come back after he left to go live his bird life? 🤍 Thank you for sharing!!
Awww, that's so sweet! I kept mealworms and apple out for him to eat when he was older. He stayed around for several weeks before leaving. :)
I just found one. We are on day and half now.
We found a baby fledgling 3 days ago. Yesterday he was doing great, eating and standing up but he just died today. Don't know what happened but am pretty hurt from it. Looks like your rescue bird really imprinted on you. Do you still have it as a pet or were you able to release it to the wild? Looked like it couldn't fly yet.
Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that. What were you feeding it? Did yours look around the same age as this one in the video at the beginning? And no, they are living out side now I haven't seen him in quite a while now.
We were feeding it moist dog food with intervals of applesauce. I noticed in the mornings it would be very weak but then come around to eating in the afternoon. The second day when he was eating a lot you could actually see the growth and it looked promising. The third day for some reason he was not eating and just slumped over with no strength and literally shrunk. Maybe he was already sick. Pretty heartbreaking to see. Was younger than yours at the beginning of the video I think. Yours actually looks very healthy. I hope that the one you took care of and showed love to is thriving in the wild!
@@protectourfreedom8221 Oh no, that is so sad! I'm sorry that happened. :( I know how hard it can be to lose one. I think I know what could of happened. Because the applesauce is watery they could have breathed in the water part and got aspiration pneumonia. Before it passed did you hear a popping sound when it would breath, would it shake its head and breath with its mouth open, and did you see fluid come out of its nose? those are all signs of aspiration.
@@lizzardsblackrose there was no popping sound or fluid out the nose but he may have shaken his head very occasionally. He only started breathing with his mouth partially open during his last few minutes. I don't think it was aspiration pneumonia but also feel the applesauce was not good in the long run. When we first gave him the applesauce he seemed to have a newfound energy but noticed the stool was more reddish and liquidy whereas with the dog food they looked like little candy corns.
There may have been an underlying illness or injury that would have resulted in the peep’s passing. Bless you for giving him a chance. We do what we can. ❤️
I have one but it can only use one eye
It doesn’t fly away? I found one today .very tiny.Do you feed it at night?
No, don't feed at night. Feed at 6am in the morning to 7pm.
@@lizzardsblackrose Lizza, after exact a month of raising i let mine out and it flew away. I miss it. I wonder if it would survive. But it really has its instincts. it was coming to me and set on me , but for the last week it would eat and fly away to sit on a sealing fan. It leared how to eat and drink and catch bugs. I worry and miss it.
I rescued one and it eats a lot can you tell me what to do???
Hi, message me on Instagram at lizzardblackrose and I could help give some advice. :)
three of my Mockingbirds don't want to leave. They keep coming back to the house in the afternoon after we let them go in them morning.
Question: did he learn to peck on his own? I’m bottle feeding and I can’t get him to peck. Btw do you still have Leggs or did he fly away ?
I found a nestling Mockingbird she is the only one that survived it looks like they all got blown out of the nest unfortunately the parking lot I found them all the babies were ran over by a car by one time it looks like this one is the only one that survived her eyes are still closed trying to get her healthy enough to bring back
Do you have a Instagram? Message me at lizzardblackrose
I have one but it doesn't open his mouth to eat
Precious 💕
hi what did you feed it? thanks
i fed it moist kitten kibble (not wet just mushy) , live mealworms with head cut off, blackberries, blueberries and raspberries.
Qué tierno!
I've raised my monkingbird, when do I turn it loose
IM SUDDENLY CRYING
How do you get him to eat I found one and it doesn’t want to eat
is it still alive?
@@lizzardsblackrose yes he is I found a way how to do it and I’m going to raise him
Mine also looks exactly the same as yours
@@Loth_the_spider_goddess depends on the age. Hatchlings every 20 min, nestling 45 min, fledgling and juveniles every hour. Other foods should be provided as well like berries and insects like crickets and superworms.
how is yours soo nice, mines is a Bitch and evertime i walk pass by him or put my finger in his cage he tries to bite me😂 i love him though we have a love hate relationship, and hes one of the best things to ever come to my life. these birds are just amazing and have the most beautiful singing in the bird kindgom. i hope yours is safe and sound
What you may thinking is biting, may actually be the bird trying to pick at something on you, I have one right now & does same thing, will peck my hand, bite at me, also rub beak/face on me as well, also likes to fly to mine or my husband shoulder....
legs is way fresh
How is Legs today? Is he still alive?
Wait it's name did was legs.
Great help very nice person
Mine didn't survive but im happy yours did
My dad found one stuck in plastic so he got it for me and I was so surprised when I woke up
We have a nest in our lime tree, they have hatched and are being fed from mom and dad. What to do when they fall from the nest and can’t fly, we have a hunter dog who secures our back yard, so this could turn into a possible rescue operation. Unless mom and dad can take them to a secured safety area. Should prove to be interesting. Maybe our dog will friend the chicks. Now the mockingbirds are keeping a tight nest.
We just found in the park
me and my friend found one that cant fly, it was stuck in a sticky trap and we didnt see the mother around. We fed it and she was a bit spoiled 😂 but she was adorable. We named her mimus after her scientific name. We plan on releasing her when she learns to fly.
Aww, poor guy. Glad you could help it. :) What have you been feeding it?
@@lizzardsblackrose we usually feed it like chopped up rice and it’s mother feeds it too.
@@lizzardsblackrose do you have any other foods you think she might like?
@@Midnight_playzX you can feed it superworms by cutting off head and cutting body in smaller segments. kitten kibble is a good source for protein, I use Purina kitten kibble by soaking it in water till soft never mushy and falling apart. Before feeding always make sure to pat dry with paper towel so its not dripping wet to avoid aspiration pneumonia. You can also feed it apple, blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries.
@@lizzardsblackrose Thank you very much for the advise
awww this is so cute my dad found one of these guys and where raising it any names for my little guy?
What gender??
@@Midnight_playzX it doesnt matter he died
i am really sad about it
