my boyfriend found a baby crow what should we do with it?

My boyfriend found a baby crow on the floor where he works, he looked very weak and next to him was a sibling of his which had sadly died. He waited a day to see if a larger crow returned to the bird but they never did, so he decided to take the bird home. we dont really know what to do with the little bird now, and theres no wild animal centre any where near where we live. were not sure what to feed him and how often and not sure whether to take him back to where he was found even though the parents did not return that day. please can someone give us some advice on what to do it would be much appreciated. thank you

baby bird help!!?

yesterday morning we found an unfeathered little bird, on the ground with no nest in sight
we have been feeding him crushed up worms and he poops/urinates-whichever you want to say-regularly
but he is trying to stand and I am pretty sure his leg is broken
because it stays tucked under him and he doesn’t move it, but he is fine if I touch it
is there anything I can do for his leg until I can get him to a professional??

How do i care for this little bird?

My friend and i were going home from a store and we saw a dead baby bird, and then she saw another one we thought it was dead, too, but then it moved. She wanted to just leave it there and let it die, which may have been a good idea, but the other was dead, it was hot out, and flies and bugs were swarming all around it, so i picked it up, and took it home. I have pet birds, but those arent the same as a wild baby bird, and i know it wouldnt be good to give it their type of food. I put it in a nesting box, and in a separate cage and i need to know what to do with it. I dont know if it will survive, it is a large baby bird, and it has most of its feathers, but some are missing around its neck, i think it is getting better feathers. I got some water into it with a plastic syringe, just to keep it hydrated for now.
If anybody has any experience in raising wild baby birds, any info would be appreciated.
Thanks Allie, I think it is about 2-3 weeks old.

Bird Experts! Help Please?

So, In my Garage my dad found a box with a little bird nest in it. With some white down feathers, twigs, and some trash. The diameter of the HOLE of the Nest was, eh, about 8cm. The nest itself, about Diameter 14cm. And in a different box nearby there were 3 little eggs. They are whiteish Pink, with reddish brown speckles on it. They have a length of 1.4cm. and with of 1.1cm. Tiny. I researched a bit and found out it was probably a House Wren, who’s eggs and Nest it was. I live in The north west. And I’m pretty sure the nest and Eggs are abandoned. There was a cat who lived in the garage, and Who knows what happened.
So I was wondering, We have an incubator, and If anyone knew what the humidity should be, temperature, and how long to incubate them for! Or I we should even try to hatch them at all.
Oh and what the babies eat? And information you would need to know to raise these birds until they’re good enough to go in the open. We raised Turkeys before(: Thanks so much If you have any helpful information!

I found a baby sparrow?

I found a little bird hobbling along our driveway (I think it’s a baby sparrow) and it had dried blood on its head and it looked like it had fallen out of it’s nest. We took it inside and a friend of our told us to feed it cat jelly meat or cat biscuits soaked in water. At the moment we are keeping it in a shoe box with a towel inside it.. Is there anything else I can do for it?

I read that you should leave them where you find them because their mother will come back for them, but after waiting a while no bird came. Our friend was holding it for a while, so if we put it back out there now the mother wouldn’t even take it back (from what I’ve heard)

Help please!

HELP – - What do I feed a little bird?

I found a little bird i the middle of my parking lot, he has feathers but can’t fly. I left him out for a while and he was still there so I brought him in for the night because it is cold out and I didn’t want him to get hit.

I don’t plan on keeping him, but I made him a little box with a makeshift nest, some twigs, and some cozy stuff. Is there anything I can do to feed him? And what can I feed him?

I found a baby bird and need help?

I found this little bird outside of its nest about an hour ago. It’s a high birdhouse and it looks like it was trying to fly and fell. I’ve got him safe in a comfortable box with tiny bits of bread for him to try to eat (He’s a baby, he doesn’t really know how to eat). And he can’t fly obviously so he’s really vulnerable. It looks like he was a little injured from the fall but he might be okay. I need suggestions on how to help him have some chance of survivor. And no, I can’t return him to the nest because the mother won’t care for him after he’s left.

P.S; how does a baby bird drink water? I’ve got a small little cap full of water near him but he hasn’t drank it or tried to eat the bread crumbs. He’s been sleeping for awhile, and still alive because he’s breathing, so I’ve left him alone.

Suggestions?
Those people don’t take regular birds. .__.
Also, those people only come for emergencies. And a bottle is WAY too big for about a week old bird.
Kay, the nest in a birdhouse 12 FEET UP. I’d have to fly to get to it. <_<
