English term or phrase: hand-reared birds
Ecco i contesti in cui ricorre questa espressione (in un testo relativo a pappagalli domestici):

Some types of this genus, like the blue front amazons and the yellow front amazons can be hand-reared well and will then grow into very tame, pleasant birds in the home.

Today this breed is usually hand-reared so that they make pleasant, ideal pet birds.

Only hand-reared birds are suitable as pet birds, however they must be given sufficient space to move.

Grazie in anticipo :)

come dice giustamente Gloria, si dice allevato a mano o allo stecco:

http://www.avifaunafree.com/quaderni allevamento/page alleva...

Per “Allevamento Allo Stecco” o “Allevamento a Mano” si intende lo svezzamento di pappagalli da parte dell’uomo. Lo “stecco”, un cucchiaio oppure una siringa è quindi lo strumento con cui somministrare il cibo ai piccoli pulcini.
