First of all, you need to make sure the baby bird is warm. It will do no good feeding it, if its cold. Put the baby bird in a small bowl that has toilet tissue or kleenex wadded up into a nest shape. Place the bowl with the bird inside of an empty aquarium or box ( with ventilation ). Underneath, keep a heating pad on low. The bird must be warm before you try to feed it.
Most baby birds will gape ( beg with mouth open ) for food. There are only a few types that will not eat this way ( i.e. morning doves ) You can feed baby birds a cheap mixture that can be made by soaking dry cat food in a cup of warm water until it is mushy. You can drop the mushy catfood pieces right into the baby birds mouth. You can feed them this until they have their feathers and have fledged or left the nest. You then need to determine what type of bird you have and feed it some more of its "natural" food that it would be eating in the wild. Good Luck!

Kaytee exact Hand Feeding Formula - The first and most widely used "instant" formula for baby birds (works for almost all birds).
just make sure to read instructions; if not used properly it could poison your lil birdie.

it just depends on the bird but you can go to a pet store and get a liquid formula for birds that has all the vitamins that they need

Mashed up hard boiled egg yolks, warm milk and honey, there is a chicken grower stuff that might work when its a little older, but I would stick with egg and chopped up nightcrawlers and stuff. Also, you might want to ask your vet about it.
