Baby pigeon found


Hi everyone, hope you are all having a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. Well, earlier today, I found a baby pigeon that I estimated to be between six and eight weeks old. I took it home (because I knew it wouldn't survive where I found it) and placed it in a cardboard box. At the local supermarket, the best feed I could find was for "finches." Now I have bird in box out in my front yard. I have some questions: 1) Do you think this bird is capable of drinking if I put a plate filled with water in the box? Or should I give it water through an eye-dropper? 2) Is "finch feed" any good for a pigeon? Also, I'm planning to transfer the young pigeon into a pet carrier so that it can get more air. I guessing the bird is about three weeks away from flying rooftop level and being able to survive on its own. Any suggestions? Thank you.
