Hello everyone,

My Goldfinch babies that i'm hand feeding are less weight and have a weak body! What should i do with them? What is the best diet for them? Also i need a list of safe food.

Most people in BirdForum will be bird watchers rather than rehabbers or cage-bird fanciers. Your question will probably be better answered by doing a Google search on the internet.

I can tell you that BWP lists insects as well as seeds in the food brought to young Goldfinch, so you could try giving them any caterpillars and soft-bodied beetles you can get hold of.
