Hi John my name is catey allen my mum kim allen can't seem to log in she said she was going to get a new pass word sent to our email but it didnt get to us. she needed to log on as she needs urgent advise so I have registered to ask the questions she needs to ask about a baby lorikeet. we found a baby lorry on the ground on the school oval it has been raining heavy and it doesn't have all its feathers, we couldnt find a nest it is weak and mum gave it 7 mils of warm water with a little grape juice in it as we are out of spark. we dont know what to give it as we only have handraiseing mix for ringnecks and mum says that lorries can't eat it so all she can think to do is boil some apple up for it tonight untill we can go to the store tomorrow. we have it in a brooder box set at 28 degrees, he has been very stressed and screaming out but now he is warm he is a bit quieter, he has most body feathers but only pin tail feathers please help us b Catey

It is better then nothing....So you mother does no how to hand raise...and yes get the other food as soon as you can..No it will not be bad to change once you have...just give the b ird the other mix once empty...you will have to give him some thing to keep up the strenght..He would be in a lot of pain from the ant...
