Stunted baby Cockatiel

[Tink65]

Hello. I have a clutch of cockatiels and all seem to be doing well except one. I'm thinking he is stunted. Do you have any advice for me? He/she is 27 days old and weighed 52 grams today.

bring them to the vet, being stunted isn’t just being small it’s a medical thing that can mean a lot of things (organs squished, bones messed up ect) if it’s worth worrying it’s worth bringing into the vets office. i hope the cute lil thing is ok!!
