Hey guys. Last night my sister rescued a nestling robin from the harassment of a neighbor's dog (and I'm sure when the neighbor's blink it would eat it) in their backyard. Unfortunately the local rehab place was already closed so I went online and successfully kept this little guy healthy.
I AM taking him to a wildlife rehabilitation center this morning and have had the guy only for 1 night due to it not being open, and I know federal law, so avoid that rant. ;)
Some queries:
Basically, until center opens does anyone have any advice other than feeding worms or fruit for this little guy? Also, he seems like an older nestling that in 4-5 days probably will be a fledgling so how often does he need to be fed?
I feel I fed him a lot this hour, but he's still gaping? Do I feed till his is full?
Thanks in advance!
