Hello guys,

There are baby sparrows that are in a nest under our house there are 4 of them! There are so many sparrows that fly in and out of there I have NO idea witch one the mum is, how do I know she has not abandoned them! Because every time I make sure there ok and stuff they are always looking for food! But in a hungry way not like, I'm not really hungry but I will ask for food anyways!!!!!! What should I do I dont wanna take them down if the mumma is still looking after them! Someone I am in stress!

Are they still featherless? You can see if they have food in their crops, kind of a bulgy area on the neck.

If there are birds flying in & out of there, they are being fed. Leave nature to do her thing.

They grow pretty quick. I had a nest inside the top of a rabbit feeder. There was 5 eggs and 4 hatched. They grow at an amazing rate and before you know it they will be gone. Oh, and they always seemed like they were hungry with thier little necks stretched out and their mouths wide open just waiting to be filled up.

Please leave them alone. They will gape for food all the time, it doesn't mean they aren't being fed. If you see sparrows flying in and out, they are being cared for. Stop bothering the nest and the babies, that will disturb the mother and father bird and make them feel like its not a safe place to be. Its great to care about them, and I appreciate that you're concerned, but truly, nature will take care of things like this if humans would just stop interfering.
