Do they forage inside your house or do they live go outside too?
Can you not but a pelleted or crumbled feed for them?

No outside we bring them inside in the evening and in the mornings they go out in their runner. We tried crumble feed but i think they found it boring

Your bird looks like it's suffering from nutritional deficiencies from not getting a balanced diet.

So am i feeding them the wrong things? I thought they needed a variety or am i giving them too much of a variety?

They need to be on a balanced feed or they may be malnourished and suffer vitamin mineral deficiency as well and not thrive. They will eat if you cut out the other things. Try moistening a small amount of it, but have the dry feed out as well. What brands have your tried?

I'd suggest you feed them a balanced diet.

Can you post a link or two to your local feed store's website? I'll show you what feed to buy from there.

Feed thats got a mixture of different seeds, mealworms, rice, pasta, veggies like lettuce, and obviously whatever else they get from foraging aswell. But id say when we first started them off they would only eat mealworms which i heard is only really supposed to be like a treat for them rather than thwir actual feed so we stopped that and were giving them or trying to give them a variety of foods

Feed them food ment for them, not all that extra junk, that will kill them

Are they getting grit? Too often people neglect to give their poultry crushed granite grit, and they cannot digest their food without it. Birds do not have teeth, but they have a gizzard instead. This is a powerful muscle inside that, with the help of grit, crushes their food so it can be digested. Keep a supply of it constantly available so the birds can help themselves. It may not seem that they are eating much of it, but they will take what they need. This is a crucial item in their care.
