Hummingbirds feed their babies by regurgitating nectar, insects, and water into their mouths. The mother hummingbird will repeat this process multiple times a day until the babies are old enough to feed themselves. The young hummingbirds will eventually learn to feed on their own and then leave the nest.
The mother hummingbird will drink nectar and eat bugs and then regurgitate the slurry substance the baby hummingbirds can digest. She will feed this mixture to the baby hummingbirds approximately every twenty (20) minutes. Baby hummingbirds cannot drink regular nectar as it does not contain enough protein to sustain them.

A hummingbird will only lay 1 to 2 tiny, pea sized white eggs. Three babies are too many for the female hummingbird to take care of.
Hummingbirds do not rely on worms for their babies; instead, they primarily feed on nectar from flowers, which provides essential sugars, and may consume insects and spiders for protein. These protein sources are crucial for the growth and development of their chicks, but they are not dependent on worms specifically. Adult hummingbirds will often feed on small insects and larvae found in their environment to supplement their diet. Overall, while insects are important, hummingbirds are not dependent on worms for raising their young.
There are more than 18 species of hummingbirds.
