Baby robin by itself

[ChickenKiera]

Hello, there is a robin nest in my horses stable and every day I have been checking it and they have been fine, the mum/dad has always been nearby. Today I went to check on them and saw that one chick was on the floor and the rest of them had gone. I used a shovel to pick it up and I put it back in its nest. Will the mum or dad come back to find it, will it eventually fly on its own or should I take it home and look after it so the horse won’t step on it? I don’t know what to do because I don’t want to interfere with it if it’s ok by itself.

Gosh, i would say watch the nest for a while. If you see the mother near about a probably leave it and she’ll come back but after a couple of hours if he’s still alone then maybe take him home and help.

If it's feathering out it's probably fledging and will be out of the best again soon. If that happens, the best thing to do is keep try to keep the horse out of the area for a few hours. If that won't work for you, shoo the bird to an area where it won't be underfoot and has some cover from predators.
If it's still bald, keep an eye on the nest from a distance, the parents will frequently return. Security cameras are great for this, or trap cameras if you can remotely download the images.

Thank you, but this chick was trying to fly and it wasn’t going very high or far. Will it gets its flight feathers soon or are they meant to fly now. I don’t know what age they are

That means it's fledging. I'd go with shooing it over to a bush or something, personally. They are pretty awkward at first. The flight feathers will keep coming in over the next couple of days and it will get a feel for what it's doing, they're usually fairly competent fliers by the end of the second day and disappear by the end of the third in my yard (flying, not eaten).
I love watching them at that age, it makes me think of what we must look like to the dolphins at the beach.

Hello, the chick is gone and there there is no sign of it. Hopefully it flew away!
