I went out to check babies about an hour ago and the smallest baby, about half the size of the other, as it goes, was kicked out of the nest and pretty cold.
I brought him in, got him warmed up, and fed him a bit of gerber rice cereal, all I have. I mixed it as thick as the hand feeding tube could pick up.
He's perked up a bit, but I'm not sure if it is best to put him back into the nest with his sibling, since it's so much bigger.
I've read they only need fed about 4 times daily, which makes sense, since I hardly see the parents feeding them. I can buy some proper hand feeding formula for him, too.
Mainly, just wanting some support and good thoughts sent my way.
Advice is good, too.
