    Don't want to rain on any parades but unless your egg was warm when you found it and didn't cool off--or fresh laid and brooding hadn't started, I doubt it'll hatch. I'm going on a little experience with chickens, but once an egg has started incubating it needs constant heat--104 degrees for a chicken egg--no hot spots--and humidity but not directly wet. Mama turns her egg--every couple of hours for chickens but who knows for smaller eggs. You could check out hatching quail eggs--they're small and they are routinely incubated. Check out "Starling Talk." If anybody can help, they can. They are as passionate about birds as TSB is about squirrels. Good luck!

    Going good (: Still doing the daily routine of turning it every hour adjusting the lighting, constantly wetting the cloth xD when it hatches (i hope it does) that will be exciting

    okay, next question, do you have a recipe for handfeeding formula if it does hatch? you will need to feed her every 15-20 minutes sunup to sundown for the first few days, keeping up the humidity and a heating pad will be needed, the light on her 24-7 will harm a little a little bird .
    imo you maybe should try to find a rehabber so she wont be raised alone if it hatches
