did hopefully they will take it as me being concerned i didnt want them to think me ungrateful i love all of the birds im just really perplexed by this one few buddies have chimed in that its probably a failure to thrive and that they have hatched a few like that where they just cease then fade at around 6 months and die and others that keep going but are just tiny
