Im sorry your baby is so sick.
Im not good at finding nearby veterinarians. But I think some members are good at helping people thst way.

But it is getting urgent. Once they are so sick thst they show it and are weak bottom of cage sitting....its serious. They do need to be seen right away by a veterinarian.

Keep them warm. Keep them quiet and in cage so don't burn up their reserves. Keep offering favorite like millet spray . Until you can get help..

Get to a vet in person ASAP. It is never worth delaying a visit in these circumstances.
We don't have a vet in our country and that's why I'm trying to get an online vet .can you share?

A vomiting, down bird is an emergency .
Some vets will let you make payments. Are there friends and family you can borrower from?

There just isn't much I can offer as help from afar. Other than basics of warmth. Quiet, tempting foods an water near to them.

What is your country?
Some places have Avian veterinarians due to tge popularity of falconry and high value of some of these

Ok update:
I went to this guy who has 30+ years experience with birds .He said it's not too late .looks like contaminated water positioning or the food is bad .either one .said give multivitamin for few days and observe before giving actual medicine .and change the current food we give .we have like 10 birds so he asked to seperate zetsu from the rest of them and let it rest

So far no improvement .it's even more silent now .fed it baby food by force so it will get a bit of energy to stand

I am just hoping your baby will pull through. I think those links @Pixiebeak supplied are great.

Well that makes no sense to me , considering he lives with other birds all fed thr something and drinking the same water
