it is true that mom may kill the baby if you put it back in the nest now. look for help in the yellow pages under animal rescue or wildlife rehabilitation, as it is illegal to keep some bird species, even though ur tryin 2 help

This may help. http://www.wildlifeincrisis.org/guidelines/ Oops, it says not to feed baby birds milk! Don't worry, I probably would of done the same thing. "Birds feed their babies constantly throughout the day. Anyone who has raised a baby bird can appreciate the diligence of parent birds. Never feed milk to a baby bird! For most baby birds a mixture of mynah bird pellets or dry dog food soaked in hot water, with a bit of baby food, turkey, and cooked egg yolk and a bit of water (until it is the consistency of oatmeal) will provide them with adequate nourishment. When fed this mixture baby birds will not need additional water, except maybe a few drops to rehydrate them when they first arrive. A popsicle stick or straw will work well as a feeding implement. Be sure not to over-feed baby birds, feed only until their crop on the side of heir neck appears full. Most birds, including fruit-eating birds, feed their babies insects to fuel their rapid growth. Baby birds will sleep through the night and do not need to be fed, but they should be fed before you go to bed and as soon as you wake each morning."

Typically they Mom does not take back a baby that has problems or she can't take care of. Best I know that you can do is to keep doing what you are doing and see if the Mom helps the baby. You may have to take care of the baby yourself until you can find someone that "adopts" wild birds.

barb

the mother won't take it back because it has the scent of you on it and birds are scared of humans. take it to a wildlife resucue group or to a bird sansuary they willl most likley take it

no mom might not want the baby back if she knows somthing is wrong with it ...... you should get a box and a towel or somthing put the bird in it then take it to a local shelter and they will know what to do.
