This thoroughly updated edition provides evidence-based protocols, practical techniques, and species-specific guidance for successfully raising orphaned, injured, or abandoned birds from hatchling to fledgling stages. Drawing on decades of clinical experience and current research, this authoritative text addresses the unique physiological, nutritional, and behavioral requirements of diverse avian species, from common domestic poultry to exotic parrots and wild raptors. The second edition expands significantly on the original work, incorporating the latest advances in avian nutrition, disease prevention, and developmental care. Readers will find detailed information on incubation parameters, brooding temperatures, feeding schedules, formula preparation, and weaning strategies tailored to different taxonomic groups. The text emphasizes critical decision-making skills needed to assess chick viability, recognize developmental abnormalities, and intervene appropriately when complications arise. Special attention is given to preventing common hand-rearing problems such as aspiration pneumonia, crop stasis, metabolic bone disease, and behavioral imprinting issues. This practical guide serves as both a clinical reference and a step-by-step manual, featuring detailed protocols that can be immediately implemented in veterinary practices, rehabilitation centers, breeding facilities, and zoological institutions. With its focus on optimizing survival rates while promoting natural behaviors and successful release or integration outcomes, Hand-Rearing Birds, 2nd Edition represents the gold standard in avian neonatal and pediatric care.
