Remember that by keeping the bird, you are performing an illegal act. Also, you likely do not have the expertise to feed the bird properly, so it very well may die under your care. Also, caring for a baby bird is not easy, as it needs to be fed every 20 minutes or so. Finally, you are not equipped to teach the bird what its parents do, such as how to hunt for food or how to be on the lookout for predators. The bird also may become so accustomed to humans that it may come to harm because it doesn't know to fly from humans and may come to expect its food from humans at all times. You may be able to match the species by looking at an online field guide such as The Cornell Lab of Ornithology or the Audubon Society's Guide to North American Birds. Positive identification will be easier if you catch a glimpse of the parents. However, if the parents are still around, you should let them take care of the baby. They have strong instincts to care for their young and are well equipped to do so. What your baby bird will eat depends on what its parents eat. For instance, cardinals eat seeds, while crows eat everything from nuts and berries to insects and small rodents. If your bird is an omnivore, you can try dog or cat food. Many wild birds are omnivores, and when they are babies, they are primarily feed insects by their parents. That means that a diet rich in animal protein, such as dog or cat food, is appropriate for these birds. If you use dry food, soak it in water first. Leave it for an hour to soak. However, when you go to feed the baby, make sure it isn't dripping, as water can get in the bird's lungs, leading to death. The food should be spongy, not dripping. Make a small ball. Create a small ball of food, about the size of a pea. Drop the food in the baby's mouth. A Popsicle stick or a chopstick is handy for this process. You can also cut the end of a straw into a small scoop. The baby should readily accept and eat the food. For dry cat or dog food, if the kibbles are too big, make sure to break them up. Essentially, you want all the food to be about a pea size. If your bird eats seeds alone, use seed formula, which you can find at a pet store. Pet stores often carry seed formula for baby parrots. Use a syringe to push the food past the glottis. The glottis goes around the trachea. You'll see a small hole in the mouth or at the back of the throat where the trachea opens. You do not want to get food or water in the trachea. Therefore, make sure the tip of the syringe moves past the glottis. That is, the baby will actively eat food when it is hungry. If it doesn't seem enthusiastic, it is probably full. If the food is sufficiently soaked, the baby bird should not need any more water, at least as long as it is a nestling. Providing water can do more damage than good, as you can cause the bird to aspirate and die. If the bird seems dehydrated when you first take it in, you can use Gatorade or Lactated Ringers Solution. Place a drop on the birds beak using your finger so that the bird can suck the liquid in. Signs of dehydration include a dry mouth and reddish skin. Also, the skin on the back of the neck will not spring back immediately when pinched if the bird is dehydrated. Your baby bird needs constant food to keep its energy up. However, you do not need to wake up to feed it at night. To be able to release the bird, you want to make sure the bird does not imprint on you or connect with you. Limit your interactions with the bird, and do not treat it like a pet. In fact, it's almost impossible to raise a single baby without having it imprint on you, especially if it is less than 2 weeks old. At about 4 weeks old, the baby should be able to start learning to feed itself. However, it can take another month or so for that to happen. You should still hand feed during this time period, but leave a small bowl of food in the cage. At this point, you can provide a very shallow bowl of water, too. You will notice the baby become less interested in hand feeding over time. You may have to wait weeks for the bird to develop its wings, becoming a fledgling. The bird cannot survive until it grows wings and starts flying on its own. Only then can you try to release it in the wild. If you keep the bird as it grows into adulthood, you will need to move to an adult diet for the bird, which will be different from its previous diet. Additionally, once the baby bird is jumping up the side of the box, you can move it to a cage rather than a box.

One-sentence summary -- Understand the risks. Identify the type of bird. Identify that bird's food source. Use cat or dog food for an omnivore. Feed bird seed formula to herbivores. Provide food until the baby seems full. Do not provide water. Provide food every 20 minutes. Handle the bird as little as possible. Allow self-feeding at 4 weeks. Feed the nestling until it becomes a fledgling.

Article: Look for one with firm, green leaves that have not turned yellow or brown. The skin on the fruit should be golden brown and firm to the touch. Smell the pineapple to see if it's ripe: it should emit sweet, heady smell indicating that you've chosen it at just the right time to start a new pineapple plant. Make sure the pineapple isn't underripe. It needs to be ripe in order to produce another pineapple. Check to make sure the pineapple isn't too ripe by tugging a little at the leaves. If they come right off, the pineapple is too ripe to plant. Be gentle. Make sure the pineapple doesn't have scale insects around the base of the leaves. They look like small grayish black spots.
