Robins, and most birds that we know, do not return to a nest after a brood has left. What is called Robin in the US builds in shrubs usually, and includes mud in the base with plant pieces over that. Most used nests will contain diseases and pests such as mites, and take up room where other nests might be made, so removing them after they are empty does all birds a favor. Normally, boxes should be cleaned after a brood, too. In the US, Eastern Bluebird, for instance, will make a second nest over a former one in a box if it is deep enough. Other species may make a nest over one that was tampered with, as when a Cowbird egg is layed in it or eggs are damaged by a House Wren. Other exceptions are swifts and swallows, burrowing birds, and large birds such as Osprey; and birds that use the same places, such as owls using nests from other species including squirrels, and many birds using the same cavity after a woodpecker or other animal made it handy.

Do baby robins eat bread?

Newborn baby robins are almost pathetic-looking: they look scrawny, with only a little down covering their bodies and no wing or tail feathers to speak of. They are more of a mottled brown-and-grey, and don't start developing that red chest of theirs until they're a few weeks of age, after they leave the nest, and after they attempt to take their first attempts at flight. At first, after hatching, they look like their all beak and no feathers. They do fill out as they get older, with their mother and father bringing them worms and insects for them to fill up on.

How many babies do mother robins have?

Robins usually have lay 4 eggs and then stop. They rarely have more and it is said that if one sees more than 4 eggs that another robin probably laid them in the "borrowed" nest. I have at this moment, though, a nest with 6 ! baby robins in it. All 6 look as if they are ready to fly.
