4 weeks old Parrotlet

[asianphan]

A friend just gave me 3 baby parrotlet. They are 4 weeks old still handfeed 2 times a day. When I feed them they try to bite because my friend took it out of the nest yesterday and I just got it this morning. What should I do to make them stop?

they are just babies they will grow out of biting you just be patience with them it will get better........

maybe they are biting just becuase they are hungry? Awww sweet little babies I hope they grow big and strong.

And what if I want to breed them should I get a female that is younger than the male or is it the other way or should I get it at the same age?

So let me get this straight. She pulled them from the nest yesterday??? And there supposed to be on two feedings a day?? Were they ever handfed before yesterday???

Well if they are 4 weeks, perhaps they were just pulled late?
