whats wrong with a bird that cant stand up it also needs fed by hand2007-11-24 17:26:15

birds should be able to fend for themselves (ie; feed themselves and stand, walk & fly) and if they cant they are in trouble..

maybe the bird fell out of a tree or got hit by a car?

ps; wildlife sanctuarys are very good, they care about wildlife and will try their best to get it back into the wild.I took three infant sparrows to one which I had fed for 4 days on catfood and cooked brown rice and mashed peas.i got a letter a few weeks later saying they'd all been released into the wild! i was really pleased!!

contact your local vets or wildlife centre and they will be able to see whats wrong with it but it needs checking out

probably has some nasty disease and is dying. Tell her not to touch it whatever she does in case it is something she can catch.

it must have a broken leg,

This bird has a broken leg. you could take it to a vet but the vet will probably just say to put it down. birds legs are very difficult to fix once broken, Especially with small birds. And when they have been broken once any slight accident and it will probably break again in the same place. It may heal on it's own but it could heal deformed, and yet again it will very easily break again. The kindest thing for this bird would be to put it to sleep.
