It’s so sad to even be writing this. Yesterday when we checked up on the little lovebird hatchling’s progress, we found him lying still and lifeless in the nest. On closer inspection it looked like he perhaps snapped his neck somehow, because he was lying very awkwardly and it was red/blue around his neck.
The lovebirds feed the little ones while the little ones are lying on their backs, so somewhere after having being fed, something must’ve happened.
We were so excited about this little one, giving it the name Jojo and planning on how we’re going to hand rear it, even worrying how the dogs are going to react to another pet in the house.
It’s always difficult when stuff like this happens to animals, or when they get mistreated, because I always wonder how they must feel or what must be going through their little minds.
RIP little Jojo
