Damn wish i'd read this before yesterday! I found a dead newborn in my budgie nest and I thought it was dead, not moving empty crop etc and buried him.

saved another cold discarded but fed chick today

it pays to get up at 530 am and check nests early another dompie and grey hen chick that the egg had been fostered ,two chicks hatched at one time

and my first real albino :offtopic: :grbud: from my jg2 cock bird albino and a albino hen

i moved it just for safe keeping as i had 3 chicks hatch this morn its with a reliable safe mummy now i dont loss it my bird room is cold temp gadge says 10 degree so night must be half that :dbb1:

 

a few breaths of warmth and a little chirp was all i needed and the little grey hens chick was fine she is also with a really good mum and her saved sister (they could be boys lol ) but they are alive through this method :rip:

Thats really good info. Thanks
