Was this a bird that you found somewhere, Mikey?

:-( Och, that's a terrible shame. Blue tit fledglings normally all leave the nest at once. Often one's not strong enough and gets left behind.
I've fed an orphan blue tit before - a straggler. It's bloody hard work. They just eat and eat. Luckily one of the parents came back later the same day. I popped the fledgling in a box in the shed and left the door open. The parent took over feeding duties and it all turned out fine in the end.
There's a nest box full of them outside my bedroom window just now. When the female was sitting on her eggs, the male would sit outside the box on the telephone line and sing loudly - starting at 6 in the morning! Some days I've staggered out of bed and opened the window just so he'd move away and shut up. That's a nest box tip: don't put it outside your bedroom. :-)

If you want cute, you need to go with fennecs.

Actually stackable for the ultra cute game of Fennec Jenga.
Fennecs are at best semi-domesticatable. Playful and friendly but liable to make bids for freedom.

Soliciting from my workbench :)

yep it was strange, we had been feeding him regularly for 5 or so days, and he seemed to be improving with every day, starting to fly across the room even, and then he suddenly died in the night. normally chicks and stuff either die straight away or survive, so it was sad for us.
my neighbor found him on the road after some wind, and she took him and gave him to us, and he was obviously not ready to fledge, and he was quite small, so either he was the runt, or he just got blown outeither way, he was awesome

Dude, your last name is Merkenschlager? That is literally incredible. You are destined for a career in Grime, my friend.
