found baby bird.. help

Do you have a picture? For most birds you should catch bugs to feed them but a substitute for food can be kitten or puppy food soaked in warm water for an hour, then mash it up and feed by hand.

 

Baby birds need very frequent feedings. Probably every hour or two for one that young. Sorry I can't help you ID it.

 

If you have grower feed, you can soak that in water and feed the paste on a qtip or toothpick.

 

Has it improved at all since that photo?

It really looks very unwell and I'd prepare yourself that no matter what you do it probably won't survive. I think really its best chance of survival lies with you calling one of the local wildlife rescue centers and handing it over to a trained person. Its just too far gone looking I think for someone unskilled to save.

In the meantime keep it warm just like you would a baby chick. Feeding baby birds isn't for the light hearted and requires the correct mix prepared to the correct temperature for the correct amount of times per day. I'm unsure how old he is from that photo but he doesn't look fully feathered?

 

You'll also need an incubator or somewhere with heat to put over the bird or else it will get chilled. I would feed him every hour but stop feeding at night, then I would start feeding again in the early morning. You should also never ever feed just water to a baby bird, it can get into the lungs, suffocate, and die. Your baby bird looks like a house sparrow and it doesn't seem to be doing well, you should be prepared for when it doesn't survive.
