Question by Mandy S: How often do you feed a fledgling baby bird of about 4 weeks?
I have a baby bird that i saved from my horse who does not like small creature in her fence.. it fell out of its nest.. I tried to put it back but it was to no sucess. The parent birds were to upset by my horse to save it and the rest of there young which died. It is from what i can tell a Barn Swallow. I have been feeding it earth worms which i hope is a safe diet being that is all i can come by at the moment. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Ok, so next time that happens, make a sturdy nest for it and nail it as close to the nest and as far from harm as you can. It’s a wives tale that birds abandon their young because our smell got on them. Many birds don’t actually have a good sense of smell.
Anyways, if you know for sure that the parents are long gone, then I honestly recommend you give it to your nearest wildlife rehabilitation center or anything of the like. They should know exactly what to do to keep it healthy and alive. Baby birds can be extremely hard to take care of if you’re inexperienced and don’t know what you’re doing.
