Went out to give the birds some apple this morning and found little 3 week old Twerp on the floor of the cage with it's head plucked and almost no skin on it's head. S/he was bleeding and very jumpy & in alot of pain. Both parents had clean faces so I don't know which one did it so I pulled it from the nest to handraise. My mum has christened her/him Twerp. S/he hadn't eated for some time and really scoffed down this offered food:  Her/His home for the next week or so:  |

Oh poor little baby, good job you rescued him when you did. Do you think he'll re-grow feathers on his head ok in time.
Hugs to both of you, clever you knowing how to hand rear them.
You are a hero to little Twerp, bless him.
Billie

Twerp is fading fast. S/he had a feed this morning but played in it mostly instead of eating.
Right now (8.12 pm) mum has him/her laying on her chest with it's cage buddy over the back keeping it warm.
It looks like shock has set in, I don't think little Twerp will see the night out.
