Post: I am new at this...

Posted by Jessica L on 5/31/05

Hey i just got an egg... a house sparrow egg to be more
specific. i offered to take care of it, after my friend
found it, because she couldn't. (her mom wouldn't let her,
we both 14 years old) i adore birds and i didnt want to
like, throw the egg away or anything. I named my little
baby birdie egg thingy Paris!!! But anyway, i've done
loads of research so i would know how to take care of my
baby birdie while it's still in its egg and after it
hatches. i use my desk lamp, keeping the temperature at
about 70-80 degrees. But do i need to keep the egg under
an incubator ALL the time? i dont think i can have it on
all night and when im at school. What are other good heat
producers? i really want this egg to hatch b/c my other
one got squished by my stupid brother. And after it
hatches, what do i feed it and how often do i need to feed
it? when im at school can i just leave a bowl of like,
squished worms out for it to eat?? As you can see i dont
know anything about raising a bird... YET. Can someone
give me some advice??
