What is a baby hooter called

If you mean baby owls, they are called ‘owlets’.

More than 150, and possibly as many as 220, species of this bird of prey exist in the world, and they come in a variety of colors and sizes.

They hatch about 2 days apart, each one will be at slightly different stages of development. Their eyes will open 10-12 days after they hatch.

When the owlets hatch, they are mostly pink with a few white feathers. In a couple of hours, they’ll start getting whitish-yellow fuzz. In a couple of weeks, their eyes open. In a month, they will have a heart-shaped, white face.

While it's true that pet owls have been popularized in books and movies such as the "Harry Potter" series, the truth is that owls are not a good choice for pets at all, and for more reasons than one! In fact, the hardships caused by properly caring for an owl are a big reason why it is best to leave them to the wild, as beautiful and captivating as these creatures may be. Here are the things that you should consider before adopting a pet owl shared by About.com.
