i found this baby bird outside and it was getting cold so i brought him in, the nest that he fell from was above my head and i couldnt get to it. he wasnt hurt from the fall but the nest was inside of a box on an electric pole i dont think that i should have messed with it, and if i were to open the box i woud have disturbed the whole nest. well i have had it for 2 nights, i frequently wake up to feed it…its a pain but i want it to live. i have been feeding it diluted dog food and it seems to be healthy. i was just wondering what type of bird it is so that i know how to better take care of it.

If you are not able to replace the bird in the nest, you need to get it to a local wildlife rehab..they will be able to get it the proper diet and care it needs for it’s best chance of survival, and you will not have to feed it around the clock anymore. Chicks are hard to ID when they are that little but a rehabilitator would probably have a much better ideal as they deal with lots of differenet baby bird species. Also, it is illegal for you to care for this chick on your own as they are protected by law. Look here for a rehab near you:

Also, you can watch the nest from afar and see what types of birds are going to it to find out the species.
