First, you need to get a can of good quality cat food....When you approach the nest, the chick will automatically open it's mouth for food. Use a popsicle stick or something other than your hands to put food in it's mouth. Small bits at a time. Do not overfeed it. It's better to give several small meals a day. I would say about 1 tablespoon per chick. The canned catfood contains a lot of water so it should not get dehyrated. Keep the chick in the nest if you have it. If you don't, get a shoebox.....and fill it with straw, or shredded paper (enough to keep it soft and warm. Also, its best NOT to bring it inside...keep the nest in the natural environment. You can also feed them smashed up earthworms if you have the stomach for that! And remember that no matter what you do, sometimes they don't make it so just do what you can and let nature take its course.
What else can I help you with?
Should i protect a birds nest outside our bedroom window from the rain and how?
No, you should leave the nest alone. Wild birds are very skittish around humans, treating humans as predators, and may abandon the nest if the scent of a human becomes too close. This would result in any eggs already laid in the nest also being abandoned and dying. The birds that built the nest either expect the nest to be protected from the rain or are adapted to sitting out the rain on the nest.

Why should you never touch birds' eggs?
It is often said that if you touch a bird's eggs or nest or the nestlings, the mother bird will abandon the nest. But, this is really not the case. That myth has been told for a very long time but, if you are careful, and do not overly disturb the nest, you will not cause the nest to be abandoned if you replace a fallen nestling in the nest or help the birds in some other way. There are, however, other reasons not to touch wild bird eggs, nests, or the birds themselves and those are to protect you from bacterial or viral diseases that may be carried on the feathers of the birds or on the nest and egg shells. You should never touch a dead bird with bare hands and always wash your hands well with soap and water immediately after any contact with areas that may be contaminated by birds or their feces.
