Feeding baby lovebirds

[sorryurgay21]

Gwat? They Drink Milk? :D

You can let the parents feed them (they won't be tame), or you can pull them from the nest two weeks after hatching and hand feed them. If you hand feed them, they will be very tame, but it's a big commitment. You buy some baby bird formula and follow the directions.  Let me know if you decide to hand feed them.

Should I feed my brother's lovebirds weed seeds?

@MetalBassjunkie420 Cannabis seeds are as detrimental as hemp seeds-- THC isn't active. Birds, like humans, have cannabinoid receptorsbut there are myriad factors why to keep the drug (active THC) away from them. Smoke being secondary to dosage.

Not sure on the nutritional benefits for birds on those seeds, fatty acids etc. But they will likely go after any seed that makes a "plink" noise

thanks for the reply

what temperature should the baby formula be?

[tomh2006]

If I remember correctly something like 102 to 105 F but I always test it to make sure it feels right.

You know, you really don't find that many hand-fed lovebirds. These babies will be quite tame.
