URGENT baby canary

[Tenesexx]

I just got the baby canary just 4 days old and anytime it wakes up to throws back out a bit of it food did I feed it too much? It's been an hour and both the babies crops r full

It sounds as if you may be overfeeding.

Yes, sounds like a bit much food. Slightly less is better than stuffing them full, even if they still think they are hungry. Let us know how it's going.

Can someone tell me why they keep dying ? My smallest babies keep dying randomly it all starts with it repeatdly opening its mouth without making noise then dies turns all blue and lifeless even thought it was feeding the other day they have heat and I feed them what could be wrong here

The smallest ones are the hardest to raise. I lost quite a few little finches and it is heartbreaking. It is especially difficult when they don't get any feeds from their parents because I'm sure the parents pass along good bacteria and things like that.

Is it just because they are small I had 3 losses already and I'm doing the same what I've always done

I'm really sorry about them
Unfortunately, those chicks have a very high mortality rate.
