So, in total, we had 6 eggs, 4 hatched but the 4th one died the same day it hatched. Now, about 2 hours ago I checked on them and the smallest one didn't have much food in his crop and was looking a bit dehydrated, so I decided to give him some formula, he took it like a champ and I put him back in the nest box. I went ahead and pulled the oldest two out and gave them just a little bit of formula as well and returned them. I just checked again and the third baby was dead, he was 8 days old today. The other two are 11 days old and about twice his size and their butts are getting quite fuzzy. This is her first clutch but is that a reason to loose 2 babies and two fertile eggs? It really sucks because now I have yet another person to inform that I do not have a baby for them
