Go to www.allaboutbirds.org to ask your question. It is the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and they will have an answer for you I feel sure. It takes an expert to hatch the eggs; to keep them at the correct temp and humidity. Baby killdeer are absolutely starving all the time! you would think the little bird is an elephant, he has such a humungous appetite. I applaud you for your concern and empathy, and best of luck to you. I have tried to raise birds many times; some success, some not.
