Hi everyone, another newbie to the forum thanks to Jester who told me about you guys.

Our only BOP's are owls so I hope thats ok with you guys, not very up on hawks etc.

I live in Norfolk UK with my partner and a variety of critters. We do bird rescue in a small way and run a very small haven (Wing & A Prayer Bird Haven). We are not funded so we are limited as to how many birds we can take.

In residence currently, we have the following, most but not all, are either unwanted, wild babies, or neglected birds.

Adults:-

I pair Eurasian Eagle Owl's
2 pairs Indian Eagle Owl's
3 Barns
2 White Faced Scops

Babies :-

1 Tawny
1 Jackdaw
1 Blackbird
1 Pigeon
1 Pheasant

and 3 cats, a Rottie and a load of chickens etc.

In addition, we have some newly hatched barn owls which we are having difficulty with.

Although I am a bit pushed at the moment, I am hoping to be a regular contributor in the future and look forward to chatting to everyone.

Well most would say mad in general but my life dows seem to have been taken over by birds since I started the rescue stuff and I am often to see seen wandering the garden with something or other perched on my head.

The barnie babies are dying and we are at a loss to work out what is wrong. I have just done an email to Alan Jones the avian vet to ask if he can shed any light so maybe if ok with you guys, I will cut and paste the gist of it on here, see if anyone here has any ideas?

So are you rearing them or are they being parent reared. How much are they getting fed?
