The Tiniest Bird You've Ever Seen - Zebra Finch Hatching
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ม.ค. 2023
- This is the smallest bird I've ever hatched. After a little Finch had lost her partner, I was asked if she could stay in my big Aviary. When I returned home after picking her up, on the way back she had laid an egg in the little transport box! Birds only do this when they have an egg that needs to be laid.
I knew there was only a small chance she would accept and hatch this egg in an actual nest herself, but I wanted to try before I set plan B in motion…

She went from hardly understanding what the syringe was to being such a demanding little monster! So cute!
I can't help but imagine the cute, hangry beeping she made in some Cthulu like voice. "HUMAN! I DEMAND SUSTENANCE! PRODUCE THE SYRINGE OF FEEDING!"
@@Jtretta she is the chosen one
@@Jtretta you should listen to hungry baby cockatiels. They sound like demons straight from hell 😂
Such a feisty little thing, I'm not sure what he named her...but I'm calling her Pepper
wait until you got a baby they do the same and for far longer
We need more people like this guy❌

It's staged, egg taken from the nest.
God, you are the most patient man in the world… I am amazed how you manage to feed and grow such tiny creatures to beautiful birds… one sudden move and this miniature bird could get damaged… thank you so much for being such a unique saviour of lives…

EGG
I wish you could put an age stamp / stage of the little bird
Just being curious as well 😊
But thank you for the video!
💗👍🏼
That little tiny heartbeat in the egg! And then that rock n roll tuft of feathers on its head!
like seeing the heartbeat at the first echo of your baby it allways excites
@@willemh3319I thought this too. made me remember the joy & love at seeing my babies for the first ultrasound.
Seeing the heartbeat while inside the egg was the most precious thing that I’ve seen. ❤🐣
Yes, in the tiniest moment, the biggest change happened, and that tiny fluttering … life 🖤🫧 it was so miraculous and simultaneously the most natural thing in the world. Often there’s not a difference…
The miracle of life is truly remarkable. Couldn’t help but smile at that moment. 🥲
It would be interessting to see how many people got blessed by only seeing bating this bird's heart, but who are at the same time pro abortion 🤔 human's heart is beating only after few weeks, and abortion is legal until 3 months ! Do not make me saying what I didn't say, I am pro abortion, but I don't know, I had this feeling... and then I asked myself existancial questions 🤔
@@Eleana1996 you are like one step away from being a not so awful human being.

Its because of people like you, the Earth still remains to be the most magical planet. Thank You.🙏
Adorable 😂💌
Are you alien 😂?
This is one of the most beautiful videos that I've ever seen!❤ My precious Dad and I used to hatch chicks in an incubator and had to turn them every 12 hours and then candle light them. It was a long process but when the hatching began it was all worth it! Your baby is defthe tiniest bird that I've ever seen! You really did an AMAZING job! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful video!💥❤
This man is such a beautiful soul...seeing such love and gentleness allowed me to forget about the harsh cruel world we live in for a little while.
Yes, you are right
Not you saying this while killing and eating animals yourself geez.
I love finding the good in the world around us. I find that when I spread goodness in the world instead of trying to receive that light and goodness for myself, it’s then that the light is distilled upon me even more! When we find that the world lacks goodness and light, let’s be the ones to spread light!
Agreed!!
As an owner of Zebra Finch myself, I gotta say THIS IS ADORABLE! My parents had 6+ baby Zebra Finch before I was born, and it's so adorable to finally be able to at least see how adorable they look!
If your parents had so many I suppose you are a Zebra Finch as well!? (Just joking.) Kind regards.
That sounds so sweet!
Your fingers look massive next to that tiny bird, It's beautiful how gently you held it throughout the entire video.
I would have been so nervous about squishing that little egg and my hands are about half the size of his! What a tender caring touch he had for this little thing ❤
⚘
That little heart beating inside the egg is too beautiful for words!
This guy Deserves a medal for kindness and hope in humanity what a chad
What does this have to do with humanity? Human beings are suffering and he is helping a bird. It has nothing to do with humanity. When he helps fellow human beings then i would be impressed. Many people save birds every day. Some people actually help humanity save staring children and families which is much more significant that a little finch.
@@FarmerFpv and here comes the looser 😂🤣
Dude first of all you need to check you knowledge and what the humanity means? It means the quality of being kind and understanding not just helping humans.
@@1minute_post With a business as big as 3 million subs its more likely that he purposefully puts animals in danger to safe them for clicks (which, before you start hating me, is sadly not unheard of btw just google). Not saying he does that but people did way worse for way less money. Personally i dont know this guy irl, i dont know if he deserves a medal, i am just happy the Finch seems to be doing alright. And if he does that because its the right thing to do then this guy definitly is a big chad. I just cant be sure thats the reasoning behind his actions is what i am saying.
I can agree that the farmer dude seems to be a looser tho.
Reea…lly….
@@FarmerFpvI am glad I do not know you.
It never ceases to amaze me when you show us the "spider" and there's a tiny little heart already beating. Nature truly is wonderful.
Edit: you can name her Victoria! As in Victory!
then i think of the equivalent in humans and how they're massacred everyday
@@SpicyElaichi Humans don't lay eggs, our young use a bigger human as life support, grow into their body, alter their metabolism for their own purposes. It's quite gruesome, and I admire those who manage to bear it.
@@feuerlingcould be worse. We could be like octopus.
Yep, life at the heartbeat is precious.
@@SpicyElaichi I was thinking the same thing😢
Фантастика.Из такой маленькой крохи великолепная птичка вырастает.Сколько сил нужно.Спасибо вам добрый человек
Какого красавца вырастил! Благодаря таким чудесным людям мир еще держится! Счастья вам !
You are an utterly lovable man. You made me actually cry with tenderness. It's so warming to see such a big man, with big hands handle with so much care a tiny, fragile little bird. The world needs more men like you ♥️
i agree with you
Did you mean more kidnappers ? Pretty much kidnap the the mom and stole her egg to show this. This is nice to see but the reality is not right to do this.
@@fdisciple7634did you even watch the video? Do you know anything about birds?
@@fdisciple7634 He literally gave the mom a home and the newborn a life. If anyone else bought the mom then they would most likely never care about the egg 💀
No the World needs to be come more like this man.
Awww it's really cute how she fuses when she wants more food. This guy is patient and caring...we need more like him in the world
Why need become one 😉
Yeah
Fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak birds stronger (jokes and references aside, I think you meant “fusses”)
Your tender love and care for these little creatures is so amazing.
She was soo teeny and helpless, I was in awe. I think I forgot to breathe. That will to live. 🥲 Bless you for being so kind. ❤
She is the tiniest little miracle! A zebra Finch was the first bird I ever owned - they are such a pretty sweet bird. Another fantastic success story. Thank-you for helping her get through.
That first tiny little heartbeat gave me goosebumps!
Mhm
Definitely a miracle
So you need to enquire about that with the GOOSE 🦆.
😏😏😏
Amazing
It’s even better when you do it in person
This brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful evolution of life! God bless this kind soul for the work he is doing in his aviary and sanctuary.
God, what a priceless opportunity!!! Seeing a baby bird be born on the palm of your hand!!❤❤❤
I foster orphaned neonate kittens and I thought feeding those munchkins was hard!
Watching you feed that tiny wee baby was truly a sight to behold. It was absoutely beautiful and really quite magical 🥰
I thought she was going to choke herself.
I've never been happier to see a small dot inside a tiny egg in my entire life.
🤗❤🥚
You said it perfectly. I am right there with you, pulling for this teeny-tiny being.
yup
I did have a bit of a squeal when I saw it
let’s hope this tiny baby is well 🤗
because it’s too smol 😭
The amount of patience when you were feeding that little guy is something I can't imagine having. Bless you!
That baby bird knows that Papa has taken good care of her. Just absolutely precious.
It looks like she’s taking the food directly to her stomach, like the competitive eaters.
Watching her explore while you brushed your teeth was delightful! Thank you for saving her and sharing her with the world.
Lovely 😍
Bad question
That's his craw
@@julietawapetona6954 her*
Yeah birds are weird. When mother birds feed their young babies, they literally stick their whole ass beak into the babies mouth and vomit up food directly into an area in the upper esophagus called the "crop." When birds finally eat on their own, they also collect food in this area before it goes in the stomach. With the baby, you can see the yellow food in the crop after the feeding. This is why it looked like the baby bird was trying to swallow that feeding tube.
I used to have a zebra finch. He would always love to be pet, always sat on my plate and tried my food every meal, and sang the most beautiful song.
No one would have believed how a zebra finch, a bird that is "incapable of bonding with a human" ended up being very loving and social.
He was a very special bird.
Rest in peace leonardo da finchi, you will be missed.
I adore the name you gave him 😊
So cute :)
Best name for the best bird omg 💜💜 thank you for sharing
What a cute name!!!
Love the name
This man is incredible. He still cared for it, without being fully confident, knowing no-one would know if he didn’t, and gave up.❤
I cried a grown man …tears of joy. All creatures GREAT (you) and SUNSHINE (finch) SMALL!❤
I cried when I saw you kiss her 😞 Thank you for being kind and being a father to her ❤️🩹

Hobbies cost a lot of money. He can't do it all for free, especially with saving so many creatures, buying a new piece of property, etc.
I was looking at videos of Zebra Finches and saw this. Read about 10 of the comments and couldn't really add to all the comments, just agree with them & how you've touched my heart. If the world had more people like you it would be a much better place!! Cried tears of joy! I grew up in a home with a canary that danced & a parakeet. Later, after my divorce, I bought 2 Zebra finches & 2 other finches. They were such a joy! I had them for 5 years & sadly gave them away when I moved for a time to Alaska. I would love to have some again. Thank you for reminding me how special they are. 😁♥
Wow, the heartbeat and the tiny little body inside with so much room to grow in that already tiny egg, was magical 😮❤.
Him doing everything he can to save the egg legitimately felt like a scene from a movie where that lil' birb was the last hope for all life on Earth. 💖
Which movie?
@@ithilgreenleaf8184 he never said it was a specific movie he just said it feels like s scene froma movie
@@ducksongfans I love the duck songs
@@ithilgreenleaf8184 Oh!- It was more of a hypothetical statement, sorry for the confusion!
But something like Sunshine (2007): like at the end where folks on a frozen harbour witness the sun shine again, or like Wall-E when he discovers the lil' sprout amidst all the wreckage..! 😁
@@ducksongfans Oh yeah just noticed, I read "a movie" as "the movie" hence the confusion lol
I'm currently fostering a lonely little kitten and always love seeing what new small animals this man is helping.Keeps me inspired to do what I love, which is help cats in my local community.
I hope, not to let them prey on small wild animals later...
Thank you so very much for helping cats, I have 3 and don't know what I'd do without them.
@@72dragona i agree with this statement
-someone who also has three cats
@@rat9593 someone who haved 10 cats and 9 dogs...lmfao (thats me)
I currently am owned by 17 cats. I have raised singletons from 8 hours old…It’s a full time job! Every two hour feeding all day and all night, God bless the Miracle Nipples! Make sure all singletons have socialization with other healthy kittens starting at 4 weeks of age. Otherwise they have difficulty socializing as a feline to people. ❤️
He had so much love, patience and compassion❤❤❤...this world would be such a wonderful place if there will be more people like him!❤❤❤❤
Having raised day 1 Gouldians, I have great respect for anyone willing to take it on. After the first few days of round the clock care, that first time you get 10-15 minutes of sleep feels like the world’s greatest vacation!
You're not only have big hands but also a big heart. Thanks to people like you world could be a better place.
Such a small heart beat. I still can’t believe this exist in our world. This is amazing. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.🙂
I like the classical music in combination the Bird is in prison.

You have to be the most kind and gentle man I have ever seen. Albert looks so sturdy and so healthy. Kudos to you. What a beautiful video XX
Its precious, its georgeous, its overwhelmingly sensitive and full of love for life, for respect to nature's gifts.
I truly admire this man for devoting his time to making such beautiful impact on you tube viewers.
I was teary-eyed through this entire video because it was so beautiful. You, sir, have renewed my faith in the kindly human spirit. With so much horribleness going on in the world today, it was such a joy to watch you protect and nurture this tiny baby bird. Thank you for your incredible kindness. I love you! 💕
yes mama ❤️
We all feel so warm from this video. Like our hearts are fuzzy ❤
Jane, agree with you. World is a mess. I ama Jehovah's Witness and I shared this video with my group. Pure joy to watch and experience. We all need each other to survive. God provides
This man has the most kind and gentle heart. So loving, the way he kissed the baby bird. Amazing ❤
agree, but he was just blowing on it to keep her warm as birds are unimaginably senstive to temprature. doesnt mean he's not loving tho or kissing it off camera idk

I had finches for a while. They’re the sweetest little things. I had two females and two makes - a pair each of two different kinds. And I ended up with three clutches of eggs over the time I had them. The little ones were taken to a locally owned bird shop to be rehomed. They lived my babies because they were well domesticated. I even saved the life of one of my mama birds. She was passing an egg that broke inside her. I had to carefully remove it and then nurse her back to good health. I had no idea what I was doing but she made a full recovery and developed an even stronger bond with me after that. 💖
One of the most poignant videos ever. I was tearing up from the tiny heartbeat inside the egg. How tiny , how wonderful .this man must be an amazing human being . Can you imagine e the good in him, yes we need millions like him ! Amazing how gentle he had to be , and patient . I was in awe!!!
I held my breath while watching you trying to feed her! It always amazes me how miraculously tiny creatures can be - it looks almost impossible to care for them but you make it happen and it makes us all happy!
As a random name my mind instantly came to lil Zipsi.
She'll definitely have a blast around your house.
Same. I thought the youngling wouldn't open it's mouth.
I agree!
I just adore how gentle you are with these tiny, helpless little creatures. How you give them so much more than food and life. The strokes, the breath, the love and warmth of another creature to tell them they are loved.
I gasped with joy when I saw the precious heartbeat. New life in any form is indeed a miracle.
What a remarkable job, taking care of such a tiny baby, & with so much compassion.❤
I’m not the typical animal video guy but wow….so touching. Give this guy an award.

The best thing I've seen on TH-cam.
As a small boy I raised a Great Tit, Magpie & blackbird.
All adapted to their own kind and the magpie came back to see me for about 6 hrs 1 year later. He tapped on my bedroom window, I took him in to mum and dad's bedroom to show him off.
I fed him, we played together, we visited his old haunts then Monty went. 53 years ago.
I loved them all.
You're an amazing man, so patient and caring. This was beautiful. 😊

I think Jenna is a perfect name. Jenna means "Little Bird" and is what we named our tiny kitten when she jumped from the headrest of the front seat to the headrest of the very back bench of our full sized fan. She was always full of energy and spunk, every day making us laugh at her antics and pull out our hair when her courage led her into some potentially dangerous situations. We had to put her down last year, a few months after her 20th birthday. I think this little bird has just as much spirit and a long, happy life ahead of her. ❤️
I called a dove I raised little bird. I didn't really want to name it incase she didn't make it. She made it to where the parents push em away and I found a rehabber with other doves her age. She was an October chick. I do miss my little bird. She loved being outside so keeping her wasn't an option.
cute name :)

What really got me was when she was flying about and your put your hand up and she flew right into it. It was an oooh, awww moment.
This was so heart warming to watch. What a lovely person you are. The world needs more people like you! And what a cute little bird!!
This was one of the most amazing animal videos I have ever watched! It was really something to see a somewhat burly looking guy with big hands/fingers handle such a teeny tiny baby bird!

I love baby birds and how adorable they are. Zebra finches make wonderful companions for anyone who wants to give them a chance. They are so cute, loving and full of sass. 💚
I appreciate the time and dedication Alwyn puts into each of his videos. I also look forward to the relationship between these two. 🥰
Also what about Noel or Flora for possible name selections? 🤔
@Bait Police another one?
Tbh the zebra is somewhat bad cause of the sound he makes and also i couldnt keep up with him cause they lay so much eggs at a short time and very hard to tame

Это что то невероятное. Сколько бессонных ночей ... Огромное спасибо за спасенную маленькую птичку. ❤️
No sleepless nights, baby birds don't demand at night since they are supposed to be asleep (at least mine slept through the night,but come first light was another story), I had a pair of zebra finches and they had no clue how to raise them so I had to quickly find ways to take care of them. I used a fish tank and heating lamp I had for a leopard gecko. I'm also a light sleeper and they only woke me up once when I had dozed off watching a show.
@Mythical Darkness Yes, baby birds do sleep at night, it's awesome!
We raised a baby marmoset whose mother abandoned her, and she had to be fed every few hours, day and night.
Im so glad I found your channel. Humankind is a mess right now, so its so heartwarming to see your videos. You're a special person, thank you for all you do. ❤️
What an impossibly tiny hatchling! It boggles the mind to know there are some birds that are born even smaller. As a chicken lover I'm used to precocial hatchlings. These altricial little things are so fascinating and alien! I love birds and I love seeing them thrive under your care. Thank you for loving birds how they deserve!

For some reason TH-cam suggested I watch your channel, I never knew I wanted to see such a thing until I watched your 3 Green egg hatchlings video, and today this wonderful beautiful little gem about zebra finch hatchlings. 😊 You are a truly remarkable caring man. BTW I think your editing is utterly brilliant. I bet the audience retention is off the scale..🤗❤️
I was whistling at the screen while you were first trying to feed her to help encourage her to open up 😂💛 and seeing the tiny heartbeat in the egg made me think of Dr. Suess's Horton Hears a Who: "A person's a person, no matter how small." Such a sweet reminder how precious all life is. 🥰🙏🏻

Then don't forget to help the poor and homeless people who are important then birds
This is so sweet. This is fantastic documentary storytelling and I adore the final sequence with her! It's amazing how they are so comfortable around you and it goes to show the time and care you put in for them.
I'd never seen a chick without their feathers eat, so I was surprised to see how their neck bulges with their food. I guess that's normal? Now I'm curious...
MaryCarl on Mrs Cog Hill and Cog Hill Farm talks about their crop and how to know when it's full as she hand feeds her baby pigeons. She is born to be a bird whisperer, too.
Birds actually have quite large crops, it just doesn’t occur to us how big they are because usually they are covered with feathers. But in this case, (a featherless baby bird with basically clear skin) we can see wonderfully just how big it is!
Yeah its amazing right! It'd their crop. It fills before the stomach snd when the stomach empties they swallow whats in the crop then repeat. Kind of like storage.
@@anyascelticcreations Ah so that's what they're called! "Crops"! I'm sure it takes some experience and focus to keep from overfeeding them.
@@arthur4494 It does. If I remember correctly, Mary Carl said that they will keep asking for food even after their crop is full. I think she said you go by feel and stop when their crop feels firm because that means it's full. It was pretty cool watching her demonstrate with her baby pigeons. They had feathers already, but when she lifted the feathers we could still see the white food through their skin. And she showed how it was still squishy before it was full.
It must have been so much harder for Alwyn to get it just right with his tiny zebra finch baby.
This is incredible. Thank you for giving her a chance. The patience and love you have for her is inspiring.
