Hi,
I am new to this site and it seems I cannot post as my username
doesn't
work. I am in the Lockyer Valley and have a baby olive backed
oriole whose
mother was drowned. She is missing some feathers in a patch above
her wing
joint but otherwise seems fine although she is now pooling yellow
watery
blobs which is a concern. I am feeding her glucodin and water, and
crushed
vitawheat biscuits mixed with water and Farex. Yesterday i gave her
shredded
lettuce and boiled egg. She will not survive on this mix and
tomorrow will
start her on wet lorry mix. The local bird lady is up to her neck in
evacuees and animals (we all have both around here) but she also has
no
power still or access to her house. I am worried this poor little
thing
won't make it unless i know what to feed her. Can you help please?
Thanks
Robyn
