u no i found a blue jay chick in a path and it has its wings quite ready to fly but he needs to eat. But i dont know what he eats
 
This might sound gross but you have to take worms and mush them up, the chick can't eat a worm that is not cut up. The bird probably wont eat very well but good luck!
 
Well if he looks like he has most of his feathers he could have been trying to fly and landed on that path. Caring for any baby bird is really really hard. But I don't think you need to take it into your care. He is probably just resting there from learning how to fly. So maybe he could use some food to get him going. Blue Jays eat insects, seeds, berries (not poison berries), small bugs like beetles, caterpillars, and any other small bug, and they eat nuts their favorite is acorns. But I think he will be okay just keep an eye on him but if you touch him, WASH your HANDS. If he doesn't move by a few hours or till tomorrow take him to a wildlife center in your area. Hope this helped, Kate. P.S. not all birds eat worms.
