Post: attacked by mum

Posted by saltwater on 6/25/06

I have been looking after some budgies whilst owners are
away and they produced 3 chicks which were probably close
to fledging. This morning they were all looking out of
their nest box. 2 hours later they were all dead, it looks
as if the mother has attached them all. Their heads are
covered in blood (so is mums face)does anyone know why
this has happened?
