Birds eat a lot of food, and grow extremely fast. You should basically feed him as much as he wants to eat every few hours. He should be able to go overnight without feedings though. He may be using his wing to support himself as he gains balance control and learns how to use his legs and wings, just like a baby person who learns to crawl, then hold onto someone’s hands while walking, before being able to walk unassisted. Were you able to find and actual injury?
Im glad you are trying to help this little guy out, but remember that birds are federally protected and you should be permitted in order to rehabilitate wildlife.
