Baby kildeer hatched to early

I have three baby kildeer eggs that I have been incubating at 90 to 99 degrees for about a week. The nest had been abandoned by it's parents I had watched the nest for at least 5 hours before retreiving the eggs. I have found plenty of articles on how self sufficient they are right after hatching, unfortunately one hatched last night EARLY. It has hardly any down and seems very hungry what do I feed this little guy to give him a chance on survival. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Dawn
