They are dead unless you have been sitting on them. It's probably to late to put them back in the nest. It's an old wives tale that once you touch them the birds won't take care of them. Birds don't have a good sense of smell. Next time try to put them back in the nest or put them in a butter dish with some grass and try to get them up in the tree as close to the actual nest as possible. Good Luck

''If you are fortunate enough to hatch them, feed them spaghetti if you can't get worms that are for bait. My neighbor had done that with a blue jay when she had found it and it was her pet for a long time until someone accidentally killed it. Good luck! ''
Ok dont listen to that dont give them worms because worms can actualy carry worms that could reck the robins liver shur in the wild they eat them but if you plan on raising them the best thing to do is feed them the starling diet.
Now you should just throw thoes eggs out there is no need to raise these bird eggs they wont hatch unless you have a speacail heater at the right tempature and feding them from that start can be very hard and could lead to death.Raising them shall take up all your time for at least a month and you shall need to feed them every 20 mins when there first born its ALOT of work.
Plus it could be ilegal to raise robins where you live with out a liscence and you could get a fine.Its no fun raising a babu bird unless you know how and it wont die because if you dont know how it shall lead to a sad death.

How about the mother robin? If you look around (and up) you might find the nest to put them back in. Robins usually nest on a ledge of some kind. Not very high up. Window ledges, tops of mailboxes. They like flat surfaces. Look for it. It is the babys best chance.

First of all, if you found the eggs in a nest or in the outside/wild, you should not have taken them. I say that you should leave them. If they hatch, do you think that you could be able to catch a bug almost every 3 minutes to feed them? Baby birds can not eat bird seed, they need a real mother to survive. And if they hatch and you take them outside, they will be killed by predators looking for an easy meal.

LoL..ive tried this once. I found 3 robin eggs around the house. My father said that once you have removed them from their nest, they prolly wont live. I took 2 foam bowls and taped them together and put a paper towel...they didnt live...lol i felt really bad!
