We have just bred our first baby budgie. It is now 3 weeks old and growing well but we are worried because it is constantly lying on its side and doesn't sit up. Also, its wings are stretched out back behind its body. The wings can go into the normal position if I hold them. Its as if the Mum is constantly sitting on the baby and keeping it flat. Is this a common problem? If so, what should we do?
