How do you take care of a baby bird hatchling?

saltypopcorn14@sbcglobal.net asked:


I just recently found a baby bird hatchling in my front yard. It seems to be very young (no feathers and its eyes are closed shut) and I’m not quite sure how to take care of it. I tried to find its mother, but there seems to be no nest nearby. Does anyone know the best way to take care of it? Thanks in advance.

    go to the pet store, they sell bird food for baby birds. You have to mix it up and put it in a sarenge, and literally put it down its throat. Ask someone at the pet store to help you.
