Ok.. So it's not a reptile [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] BUT Def needs some help anyway. One of the neighborhood cats, usually it's one of mine that would hunt em down, but wasn't this time, has this lil critter in it's mouth. The kids managed to get it out of the cat's mouth before any really extensive damage could be done to it. It basically has bites on both sides of it's head that don't look to be too bad really.
I am NOT a bird person so..
What type bird is this ?
How old is it even ? I beleive it is quite young none the less anyway.
What can be used for the bites it has ?
What does it eat ? AND How should it be given to it ? [ no wise cracks about chewing worms and letting the bird eat outta the mouth thank you either ! lol]
I know we have some wildlife rehabbers here from NC that know their birds also. So give me a heads up here would ya please [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img] [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]
a/c says they would just have it put down is all. Guess wild birds are of no value [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img] SPCA says the same thing also. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img] So how about someone helping me to give it a chance here ?

That's a child's hand holding it btw in second pic.
