Hello there, helpful people!
Last night, we found a small quail-like birdie huddled at the bottom of our steps. It's all fluffed up and seems to have trouble walking, but is eating and drinking fine. I've been feeding it finch food (the best I could do on short notice).
We have some neighbors that have chickens, but they said it wasn't theirs. This is in an urban area (Miami), so I have no idea where it came from.
Does anyone have any idea what it is? Male or female? It's got a dark beak, pinkish legs with 4 forward facing toes, and a plain-ish tan-ish breast.
Is there anything I can do for it besides keep it warm and quiet? I don't see any noticeable injuries.
Thank you so much for any help you can provide!
