Probably just jump back out....happens with chicks that are checked on....if you have brush in corners of aviary should be okay

If one out and others still in, I will put the jumper in just on dark, holding my hand over the entry hole till movement ceases indicating they have settled down.

As mentioned earlier, it wont stay in the box now that it is out. If you do put it back in and it jumps at night it will die. The best thing to do is to place some branches/or a small perch close to the floor preferably in the rear of the aviary in a corner.
I haven't done this but i have been told that you can put the it back in the nest very late in the evening and place a sock in the hole and remove early in the morning so the parents can feed them. Good luck. Craig

Some seem to be a little slower in getting up and about. And sometimes they are the keanest to be out and looking. Good luck with them.

So today I went into the aviary the jumper back on the ground again ( I think unless it's another jumper didn't think to check the nest) and chirping for food from the dad the dad had troubles flying up to the top of the aviary not sure if it was tired / exhausted or protective of the baby any thoughts ?
