There are many kind people who volunteer to take care of abandoned animals. Abandoned cats and dogs are the animals that people mostly take care of. Taking good care of any animal is not an easy task. Have you ever taken care of a little bird egg and hatch it? A Chick Called Albert, a YouTube channel had posted a video of a journey of a little parakeet. A man had found a tiny parrot egg in a pet shop and had taken it home. And then after few days, it hat hatched and a cute Budgie had come out of it. The video had received more than 39k comments and is viewed by more than 13.5m people.

In the video, he says that he had seen the bird egg in a budgie cage. And he had seen that there was only the male parrot. And when he had asked the owner he had told the man that the female one was just sold.

Then he had put the little egg inside a matchbox and had taken it home wondering whether he would be able to bring it to life. Then he had placed the egg inside an incubator and hoped to see a little birdie in few days.

He had said that after that point onward the little thing had grown fast. He had said that he rotated the egg thrice a day so that the little fellow wouldn’t get attached to the shell.

The little fellow had been very small and fragile. The man had said that the bird needed food and as he has never had a parrot he did research about how to feed the little bird. And had said that though it could be done it wasn’t easy. He had fed the bird 8 times a day so that he could grow well.

And as the bird was growing well the man had thought about its dad that he had left in the pet shop. When he had asked the owner about the daddy parakeet the owner had said that he was still there. Then the man had told the owner that he would come for him when the little one could fly.
