So I come home to find a baby dove in a box, my husband found him walking around and knew that cats would get him. Brought the dove in and tried to put some seeds and water and grass in a magic bullet to make some type of ground up food from the area where his mother and father feed. Didn't take much at all accept a little liquid. Day two I try to put him outdoors to see if his mom or dad comes to feed him. No luck....... I bring him back in.....I get to a pet store after it closes .....now I cannot get the formula I needed. So I buy infant formula .....I'm talking Similac because this baby needed something...he sucked down a bunch....overnight , this little guy seems weak....I'm pretty sure he's cold. I have him resting in a shoebox with a little stuffed turkey and a light keeping him warm . I noticed some diahrea in the bedding. I will get to the store today for the bird formula I need. But is this guy too old for formula ? I guesstimate him to be about 9 or 10 days old....
