I guess start digging worms? You will have to mince them.

I don't know if this is really the right thing to do but we have actually raised up a couple baby birds by feeding them moistened dry dog food.

Not sure an expert would recommend that but the new baby birds we found did survive and grow up to 'spread their wings'.

I had one that we named 'Peck'. He was a really cool starling.

Use rounded tweezers to feed them when they hatch. Minimal handling is best. The dog food is a good idea, but worms and grubs are best. Mince them like the other poster said. You could also call places that handle wildlife and they can help you with contacting the appropriate agencies or give you helpful ideas on raising the babies. Good luck!!
