I'd keep him around for a while it's a baby it won't last very long if you let it go.

Do some research on keeping a ringneck in captivity until such a time as you can release it. Also check your local regulations for keeping collected wildlife. If you can get it to a rehabilitator, that would be ideal.

Keep it around if you want it to live
