They may flutter around them for a while but there is really not much they can do to put them back in the nest so they do abandon them. In some cases where there are 2 or 3 eggs that hatch, one of the chicks will push the others out so that they have a better chance of survival.

Can you move a robins nest with babies in it?

Nothing will happen. Trust me. When people say that if you touch a nest full of baby birds the mother will abandon it, its not true. Some people believe that or parents just say that to little kids to keep them from touching it. Mother birds will NOT abandon their young if you touch or even handle the chick. I know first hand because as a teen I wanted to become a vet and I hatched a robin egg. Once it hatched I put it back into its mothers nest. I watched the nest and she always came back. Even if I came close or even touched to check the chick I hatched. It eventually grew up and flew away. So, don't believe it if you touch baby birds that the mother will abandon it. Its NOT true!
