Sadly most people cannot successfully raise a wild bird. The amount they need to feed, what they need to eat, etc. etc. isn't something most people can successfully provide.

Whatever other problems the baby may have had, it/they were aggravated by the stress birds experience when removed from their natural surroundings. Another reason it is hard to rehab injured birds for most people.
