I currently have a clutch of five cockatiels, the parents' second clutch, at 16, 14, 12, 10, and 8 days old.
The parents have already thrown the 10 and 12 out, and I am hand-feeding them around the clock. The 8 day old, still with parents, is abnormally small. He's almost completely bald, no feathers or fluff. His feet have not even begun developing, and he's just really tiny for his age. He's kept warm and his crop is full, but this is just really weird and neither I nor my mum know what's happening.
