What kind of bird? Does the vet know it is three weeks old. Do they start to copy sounds that soon? What are you hand feeding, is it too hot, how often do you feed, how much is the bird weighing in at each day.... etc.... etc...

i'd get a second opinion... not sure that babies that age will go ahead and copy noises....

no one is meaning to attack you here - usually it is not recomended that you buy a non-weaned bird to handraise yourself unless you have a lot of experience doing so, because you can't possibly know everything that could go wrong.

Strange...

The difference between a 3 wk old baby and a 6 month old baby is very obvious.

If it really is 6 months old, you would not be feeding it formula. So, if you originally thought the baby was 2 wks when you got it, you'd be hand-feeding it.

So are you- or not?

Seems like kind of an odd post... if he's feeling fine, I'm glad...
