I NEED HELP WITH MY BABY PARAKEET NOW!!!?

It's parents won't feed her, she's too young for seeds and I don't think she's eaten in a LONG time, we used to feed her yogurt but she doesn't want that anymore, she won't eat it and all the vets are closed! What do I do!?!?!?

    You must feed her Kaytee Exact Baby Bird Food from a syringe.

    For now...get an insulin syringe from the pharmacy in WalMart and feed her ground sunflower seeds ground to powder and mixed with Gatorade. This is an emergency situation. Warm the mixture that should be as thick as pudding and put a few drops from the syringe into her beak. Let it settle and put a few more drops. You can also use the yolk of a hard boiled egg, again warmed and mashed with Gatorade and dropped into her beak. Pudding thickness is best for her.

    I hope it is not too late....and she should be kept very warm on a heating pad or a 40 watt bulb over her head.
