Read this and start hydrating the babies this way. Since they've been so long without food or water, they're situation may well be critical. I'll find you more links to read. Do you have access to infant baby cereal?

The green slime means they are starving.
Do you have any dry dog food?

I don't know what Minteded peas are. Please explain.
I use defrsted corn and peas to feed pigeons if I don't have anything else. Infant baby cereal and soaked dog biscuts can also be used if you don't have formula. The corn,peas and soaked dog biscuts would be the easiest for you to feed if you are not experienced.
