Help with feeding wild robin chick asap?

I found these ideas on line a few years ago. Beef canned dog food,if you can get it mix with a little parrot hand feeding formula, If not I would get gerber baby oatmeal and mix with it.Make it soupy but not so much that it will run all over the bird.Feed with a syringe or a straw.Be sure and rinse off any food that gets on bird. It will make it loose feathers.You can get meal worms at a farm type store and mix with it but not a must have. As it gets close to weaning you can offer it raisins, tiny pieces of apple, and boiled egg yolk. "yolk only". Hope this helps. I don't know any links to give. The bird will need to be fed pretty often as young as it is.
