Guy,

See if this will help. It has a section on what to feed a baby bird. It seems to be crucial the bird be fed at intervals of 1/2 hr to 1 hr.

You could also contact a bird rescue/rehabilitation center.

Another possibiliy is to contact a veterinary clinic/hospital for small animals. They will be able to better advise you what to do.

call your local police department on a non emergency line. when i found a baby bird by my door, the vbpd sent a sqaud car over and took it to a lady that is on call for bird rescues. if anyon would know who helps injuried animals the cops might. or your local game warden/conservation officer.

Insects and worms...if he opens its beak for you. No water or it will get bad diarrhea and die.

You are most welcome!

Just keep feeding him according to the instructions in that link and I think he will be fine. He should hang in there until you can get professional help.

Good luck to you and him!
