No....bread! Use a good quality cat food soaked until mush and the drop towards the back of the throat. If you look carefully a lot of baby birds have a marking of some sort near the back of their throat. Aim for that.
A seed eating bird should start getting some ground seeds as it ages added...making them coarse.
Birds do not smell. They taste.

Leaving it alone or taking it to an experienced person is the best thing, a vet could probably help too, always take it to a vet if its hurt or shivering. If you can't find the nest and the bird is younger than a fledgling put it in a box with some towels or a basket and get it as close to the nest as possible, or in a bush or shrubbery close to where you found it. If the parents don't visit the baby in 2 and a half hours get a shoe box or something and put a heating pad on low or a glove filled with warm water or a ziploc bag with warm water or a 40 watt light bulb hanging above the box(whew) and then line the box with paper towels(easiest to change) or some soft cloths. Then cover the box with a towel and leave a space for ventilation. I've heard that dog food in a can will work with the baby, or baby bird formula is what i'm using for the baby gray catbird that fell out of it's nest today(its parents built the nest in the chimney)(sooo annoying but cool) don't force feed it, wait until it opens its mouth(gaping) and is begging. When its begging its head will be closer to you, if its feet are your scaring it. Don't feed baby birds birdseed, they cannot digest it, water and milk are bad too(all birds are lactose intolerant) I'm feeding mine with an eye dropper, i tried using dull tweezers with the dog food but no luck. The baby bird formula will be good for any bird, but if you know what kind of bird it is you can feed it chopped up whatever

We found 3 baby birds laying at the bottom of the tree we put them back in the nest with out touching them but the next morning we found 2 of them back on the ground so the mother must have rejected them again not because of the scent because that is not true anyway 1 was dead and 1 was barley alive and very weak we put it in a cardboard box with no lid and underneath it is a towel in the shape of a nest then we covered it up with a towel but not its head we Fed it 2 very small bits of worms and a couple of drops of water we do this every so often it seems 2 be getting stronger knock on wood! Are we doing this right and what can we do to help it PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the baby bird needs food you have to feed it baby bird formula from any pet store. They need to be fed every 2 hours around the clock for 3 weeks.

Moist bread wet it down and feed them with tweezers. You also have to make them poop if they don't already

Smelling humans is a myth. Trust me by experience. Birds only abandon eggs when they have a sense of insecurity and being disturbed.
Bread dipped in egg yolk. But, you have to put it down its throat...make sure its on the feeding side. I did this with a sparrow. After she gets all her feathers change to meal worms
