2 little tiels lose their battle

[Pedro]

Well as i mentioned in someone elses thread i was battling to keep some baby tiels alive. Both died through the night. I still have 4 the oldest one with thrush is still hanging in there. The 2 that are 3 weeks old are powering on & then 2 days ago my friend brings me another day old chick. Oh my god i had forgotten how small they are at hatch.

She shocked me when she told me she still has another 9 eggs in the incubator. I really don't like to help this friend out because her birds are not always healthy & she colony breeds her tiels & they are over crowded. IMO.

Silly girl decided to move all the tiels to another aviary but she didn't check the nest boxes before she did it. Then big panic when the babies & eggs are discovered in some of the nestboxes.

Very sorry for the loss of your two babies. You worked so hard! Good luck with the rest of your babies hopefully you won't have anymore surprise babies though.

So sorry to hear that you lost them

Sounds like a very frustrating situation with your friend. Is it at all possible that the deaths of the two chicks will smarter her up, or not so much?
