i'm thinking several weeks..they can only get a few inches off the ground when they attempt to fly..the info i've found says they need to be taught to eat on their own yet still be handfed supplementally till six to eight weeks..and some people familiar with these birds say they are no older than two and a half to three weeks..so they'll be with me for awhile.

You are marvellous Tink - I do admire you. Not only a cat and ferret whisperer, but now a starling tweeter too! Good luck with the young'uns.

You really do have a way with animals and birds, Tink, a real gift! And your OH is great rescuing them for you! I remember the poor swan......
