Thanks for reaching out about Randomy. Without knowing what type of bird and what is wrong, it is very difficult to give ideas. Is there a local wildlife rescue group to assist? Provide heat support in the 80-85 F range for comfort. Try offering water via a syringe and if takes well, a baby bird hand-rearing formula should be syringe fed for calories and nutrition. A feeding formula for parrots will suffice for now. Good luck.
