Thank you
I went out and got him the feeding formula and have started spoon feeding him. He ate quite a bit.
He screams almost all day while lifting his wings. Is he hungry or just scared? I'm completely new to this, sorry for all the questions
Ask away. Handfed babies often associate hands and attention with feeding so he may beg for food when he really wants attention. I would try to offer food three times a day and see how it goes, if he isn't very interested and isn't begging then you can try to do it only twice and see how it goes.
I have found that they are often not very hungry when they first wake up if they at well before bed so keep that in mind and offer the food a hour or two after waking up.
Keep weaning foods in his cage all the time. You may notice he will eat more on his own after the handfeeding has made him more comfortable.
Babies will often beg when not really hungry but if you happen to catch them when they are hungry you will see that there is a special franticness that is exhibited by a truly hungry baby. It is almost desperation. You'll know it when you see it.
