Even if you're able to somehow feed it,what about protecting it from cold?! so its best to try and link it back with its parents

I thought about that but it’s parents are no where to be found

RYEOFARMS:
I once tried feeding one with chicken feed but its quite hard cos the bird can't feed on its own yet,it depends on its mother but as time went by I learnt that if I kept them safe outside where I found them (let's say inside an open cartoon that its parent's can access) the parents will come around to feed it till its able to fly ,I even made a temporary straw nest inside the carton

I fed it with boiled eggs and it’s looking very healthy this morning. Still doesn’t fly yet. I guess that’s gonna take a while.

RYEOFARMS:
Seriously its the same scenario just that the one I found was literally dead

Lol this one is still alive and when I get close, it opens its mouth expecting food.

Please i would like to know if there’s something I can feed the poor guy with.

Check around its nest is nearby at that they can't survive far away from home,I presently have one meeting in my backyard, it lost a chick two days ago,it somehow fell and bled to death

Exactly, I found this one on the floor, close to where my generator was at.

bmdmix5:
can fly?

No it can’t fly and it’s opening it’s mouth. I don’t know what to feed it so I killed some bunch of tiny ants and put it in its mouth and he ate it

Hello nairlanders, I found this baby just few minutes ago while I was going to my backyard to put on my Gen.
It’s so cute and I don’t even know what to do with it.

I also don’t know if I should keep it or free the bird but it doesn’t fly yet and it’s also got a little tiny piece of food in its mouth. I would like to know what Breed.
