Here's the follow-up montage video from the BlueTit nest box located in Loughborough, UK. It takes us from the first egg hatching to the chicks fledging and leaving the nest.
There is a 'PG-13' edit of this video showing what happens to the chicks that didn't make it. You can find that here: • 'PG-13' Edit. First Eg...

As you'll see, several of the chicks didn't survive to fledging. There was a cold snap during the nesting period which could have had a bearing on the matter. Rest assured that the bird feeders were (and still are) well stocked. Like minded people with bluetit nest boxes in the UK left comments saying many of their chicks also hadn't survived through to fledging this year either.
The chicks hatched over a four day period, usually this would only be a two day affair. The final chick to hatch on day 4 didn't stand much of a chance compared to its siblings which were already much larger after 2 or 3 days of being fed.
The sharper eyed amongst you might have noticed that there isn't a day 15 or 19 in the video. This was due to a recording failure and a computer meltdown. The camera and computer had been streaming 24/7 for two and a half months and started to fight back!
The parents continue to feed the chicks in and around the garden and the chicks have not returned to the nest box. This is absolutely normal.
The white fluff in the nest is Sheep's wool.

What happened to the other chicks
@@21Light12 starved or killed
Were the dead birds in the nest?
I had to throw away a reef next to my front door with nest of baby birds on it. My God was it awful, the stench and stains they left behind. I only noticed the nest when I began to smell a appalling stench whenever I would walk into my house. When I check on it, there were 2 baby birds, there was a 3rd one but it was hanging off the nest by it's leg decaying, right next to the other 2. There were also just slimey stains of fecal matter, vomit??, and what ever covering the nest and everything around it. Almost made me puke on the spot. Threw the whole reef away (including those birds) and had to scrub the stains they left behind off my house. Sometimes nature isn't so pretty. In the end of they day, they are just animals running on instincts.
“you can't just give them a whole steak, john" when dad gives them a giant caterpillar 😅
And then took the dead body :(
Lmao 😂 definitely something a dad would do🤣
Dad’s just teasing them with that caterpillar…halfway to the stomach and he pulls it out.
Hahaha!
The first caterpillar part is amazing. The parent manages to help the chicks so they can suck the juice out of the caterpillar. Then the parent decide to take away the rest.
Love how the dad tries to feed an entire caterpillar to the chicks and the mother comes in like "Bob, what are you doing"
No, it was mother
4:45
@@user-rp4zb4qq6q no it was the dad the mother is the one that built the nest and if you look at the other vid where the nest was getting built it was the mother which had a clear head and the dad has some rough pattern
@@laurenwillis8818 hahaha
Strange how males of most if not all species are all so rough physically and in personality.
It's almost as if it was built into their biology.
Wait until they all figure out they can have 100 genders.
Mama eats the eggshells after the chicks hatch to regain the lost calcium she expelled from creating the eggshells! It's absolutely fascinating that she knows to do this and just trusts her instincts. Birds are incredible!
Thanks for clearing my doubt ... While watching the video, I was like "Why is she eating the egg shell?"
Smart Nature👍
Wow❤
god's creation is wondrous
God is incredible....birds are birds
this video has everything. sadness from deceased chicks, purity from the loving parents, suspense from the predators, and joy from their first flight. i loved watching this. thank you for sharing your bird house reality show for the world to see.
The good thing is bird doesn't know these feelings and are just acting as machines of nature governed by aurvival
@Harrian Instincts helps yes. But animals can feel emotion too.
Only two chicks out of six survived past day 17.
I believe some die because they don't get fed enough. Seems sometimes the same chicks get fed over and over
@@ptrekboxbreaks5198 Exactly. This is a good example of Darwinism. The stronger chicks can move their heads higher and faster and thus get more food. Just watch these beaks going up when a parent bird returns with food.
Mom: return home

you have ruined :O for me 😂😂

That starling poking its enormous head through the hole at 16:25 is kind of terrifying when you've been intimately watching much smaller birds go about their daily lives for 16 minutes
A starling with a huge beak like that? I think it was a bird from the crow family and it almost had chicken nuggets for the day.
It was about to turn Stephen King very fast! 😂
Yeah that was a crow.
@@s.c.7362 It's no crow, its beak is yellow, and also much narrower than any corvid's. Starlings are a real menace for nest boxes.
@@Vordhosbnite There were two predator attacks! I think the first was a crow and the second was a starling.
I'm so happy to see you enforced the entrance with a metal ring. Often people buy nesting boxes with blue tits in mind but then other more dominant birds (edit) prising open the hole to fit. No prying with the metal. A wonderful box! Thank you for sharing!
Tits? These aren’t blue jays?

@lisajones1438 There's a crow at the entrance, probably to eat them. The maker is good at its job as he made the entrance locked by metal surface. If it would have been made up of wood... bigger birds would have pry opened the entrance by its claws or beak.
Fascinating. I counted 6 little ones and only two survives to fly away. Predators tried twice to get in the box. Bravo on this video.
No, only one died. The rest flew away. They were different ages.

"Bob, are you trying to feed them an entire caterpillar?"

😆😆😆😆 the best comment ever 👍
But she took it and tried feeding them anyway. How is that any different?
Every dad ever
"Hey, I’m doing my job ! It’s not myy fault they don’t know how to eat yet ! What even am I supposed to DO in that situation ?!"
Damn, this bird couple is more responsible and supportive of each other than some human couples.
Fun fact: birds are monogamous, mate for life, and take equal time to support their children
The reason why humans (and other mammals) are different is because, unlike with simple egg laying, the female/afab must carry their child for 9 months of pregnancy, followed by at least a year of breastfeeding. During this time, the mother bonds more with the child than the father/other parent, thus ending up in a tradition where it's expected of the mother to care more for the child than the father
most human couples*
And you can thank "liberated" feminist culture for abandoning "unnatural monogamy" for that.
Sad but true.
So true 😥 specially in this era😔😞
I was thinking just that. No domestic violence (apart form when he kicked her out of the nest to say come on, help get food)
7:43
Bird: “Honey, lemme just..” *shoves off nest with foot* “There we go. Alright, who’s hungry?”

@@heidi4416 same lol
@@AnastasiaShanueva They absolutely did lmao, were you not watching?
I'm fascinated at how the baby birds, after they get fed, turn around, lift up their hind ends, and begin to defecate. And the mom and dad seem to expect this movement, and are right there to retrieve the waste material from the baby and take it out of the nest. This is truly extraordinary behavior and makes you wonder, "How do they know how to do this? Where did they learn this from?"
Thousands of years of evolution. Instinct. Same way we know when our babies are likely to shit.
yes! i was wondering too..and its their first time being parents
God is the best engineer and programmer, no doubt!
I agree!@@UYTRELLO
@@UYTRELLOAmen! Our Creator is so incredible!
I love how the dad brings mom food to feed the babies. Happy well-oiled family unit.
Never been so scared of a black crow before in my life. Imagine just chilling and suddenly huge black claws and a huge black beak peaks into your living room window. No wonder those birds are fast as fuck lmao.

He was quite a watchful protector. Trying to feed the baby while still looking outside the nest for danger. I also loved how he would kick her off the chicks if she didn’t move fast enough after he returned home with food. 😂

HERE'S JOHNNY!
Adult bird: “I have arrived little ones”
Baby birds: “F O O D T I M E”
Anddd they’re dead
not for everyone, 3 died
He’s such a good father 🥹
15:25 for those wondering what that censored box in the bottom right hand corner is, from another video: "I think the last one was too big to lift our of the nest after it died so they moved it to the far corner. You can see a brown censor box appear in the right bottom of the screen at some point. I think the body is behind that". There were 3 and then down to 2. That's wild that they couldn't get the body out.
8:25 16:25 predators a foot, crazy shit. The crow was massive! The starling being smaller was still scary.
The instinctual reaction of the babies to thrust their heads up with their mouths open the moment the parents return is fascinating.
Also anyone know why they flap their wings a lot like at 17:40? Practicing? I thought it was for better air circulation or getting some exercise XD EDIT: nevermind, didn't realize those are the kids practicing.
You're right. At 15:15 after two of them are fed, the third is killed off and the brown box appears after that.
Yes it's the birds building strength to be able to fly.
@@christopherchung7152 so the mother killed it so that she can bring enough food to feed to remaining two ?
@@christopherchung7152how do you know that it was killed after they fed the other chicks
@@Canetoady If you look closely after the two chicks are fed, it looks to go in to feed the third but suddenly takes very aggressive pecks at the neck of the third. It's definitely not feeding it here.
It manages to peck out a solid piece from its neck before leaving and flying off. The next shot we get already excludes the third chick (only 2 remain) and the censored box appears where the body likely was left.
Who else just found this in their recommended and randomly decided to watch it and now is suddenly sorta interested in it
I found the first one in my recommended and got interested in seeing them grow-
Key word being sorta. I’m just interested enough to keep watching haha
I somehow landed here and don't know how or why........now I can't leave 😒

1:51 The next bit is where dad comes back and realises he has a baby and kisses the mum 💚 Then flies away forgetting to give her the food 👀🤣
Dad coming back with food in less than 5 seconds was insane!
TH-cam recommends birds and suddenly the world is wholesome again.
I know, they aren't getting torn apart by a hawk or pine martin like they usually do in the TH-cam recommendations lol.
yes.
man past two days has been tough but for some reason this vid an the first relaxed me so much lol could of been the nugs to haha
Yeah, TH-cam will have to do something about that. Sometimes I think wholesomeness isn't on their approved narratives list.
Wholesome? Five of them died and were most likely fed to the others 🤣🤣
In case anyone was wondering, yes that female was eating the leftover egg chunks. Eggs require a sizable investment in energy, but especially in calcium, which has to come from somewhere and that's somewhere is usually the mama's bones. Eating the eggshell allows her to recoup most of that calcium.
Everyone knows this
Mammals eat placentas too... including some humans...
Is a good source of vitamins
Very smart
Did she eat the 5 dead chicks too or are the other chicks just standing on top of them?
@@louisgambino1951 I think the parents toss dead chicks out. I'm not sure if bird parents eat their own chicks. Small mammals like mice, hamsters and rabbits do though.
21 days from not being able to see a single thing to swooping around in the air. Nature is insane.
❤ he said... breath in to me ill give you nourish ment
They had 5 eggs hatched but only 2 flew from the nest? Sad that those poor other babies didn't make it, but it's incredible to see what happens in just 3 short weeks
It was strange it went from 6 to 2 pretty quick and all of them looked capable of survival. It's strange that the bodies seemingly disappeared or maybe there's cannibalism going on. It's amazing how the parents carry on and keep feeding the young up until the last day.
@@tiger1554 I suppose the grey rectangle from day 18 onward covers one of the bodies
Have 5 children. Pick your favourite 2 :D
It's cutthroat. The siblings either intentionally or inadvertently kill each other. They ask for more food and make the loudest noises and gestures so they get fed too much and force their siblings to starve.
Maybe dad brought back the wrong kind of caterpillar... Something seemed wrong with the situation where they were trying to force feed them that one caterpillar, and chicks started disappearing soon after that. Sometimes it could be illness or sanitary issues as well. That nest looks like a breeding ground for all manner of disease, fungus, and parasites. Not to mention, mama bird feeds them with the same mouth she uses to pull poop out of their butts, so if one chick gets a parasite or illness, they are all getting exposed to it.
Male Bird: *gives chicks a whole worm*
Female Bird: "Honey, you know they can't eat that yet."
me: if you pull it apart you can feed them all
@@vladthecon me: you’re not a bird

If I'm not mistaken, it was the female bird who gave the worm, and the male bird who corrected
Edit: I think I was mistaken
@@Balanar6236 yeah i think it was papa who came in with the caterpillar
Momma came in like “bruh”
When the dad brought in the caterpillar LOL! The mom took it immediately and knew it wouldn't work out 💀
And once the mom kicks the dad outa the nest, a real kickboxing push kick. I think she was feeling that the kids were still too small and that the dad could accidentally hurt them.
7:44 was that the dad who sits on chicks? Lol (oh i think thats because of keeping them warm)
Y Y'all know how Dad's are....not a lot of attention to detail.

@@badassat69 Not to be Captain Bringdown, but the dad apparently killed one of the chicks in the May 21st video by feeding it a centipede that either choked it or shredded its insides. Mom's fears weren't exactly wrong.

Such a sweet little bird family! My hubby and I found ourselves watching the entire video! 💗
I never realized how important bird houses actually were until i watched this series. While only 2 survived, none of them would have made it if it wasn't for the house due to the few predator attacks that these birds went through. That shelter was insanely important.

Did you guys see how after they ate they would flip themselves upside down and poop and the parent carries it away? Thats kind of amazing how they adapted to instinctually keep the nest clean
Oh snap. I didn't see that! MOTHER NATURE IS DISGUSTING! LOL 😅
you know, all animals mate with only the best , strongest, most perfect in every way. BUT humans will mate with anyone. animals keep thier nest clean , humans allow their homes to become filthy . we most definitely did not evolve from some kind of animal
Some birds like Robins eat the poop. House sparrows just let the poop get all over the nest.
@@johnandevefoster3816 heh, animals only mating with the best. if that was true ducks would not have had to evolve labyrinth vaginas to keep out unwanted "suitors," who in turned evolved corkscrews so they could force themselves apon anyone they want anyways.
Edit: also, they might remove poop from the nest, but at around 15:30 they leave a corpse in the nest that the editors have to hide behind a square, a true model of sanitation.

I counted six originally. The parents usually concentrate on the two oldest in the nest. Unless you want to provide food for the entire family next to the box, the parents can only provide for the strongest and most determined to be fed. It amazes me that within 3 weeks the chicks reach the same size as the parents. The father is in charge of teaching his children how to feed themselves and how to fly once they have fledged the nest box. Both of these parents are very attentive to keeping their home clean.
What happens to the rest? I tried to look but couldn't see. Do they just die in the nest or do they get taken out?
@@notknown1 probably haha that would be so disturbing to see. Thank you for the info I was scrolling through comments to see if anyone said anything about it before I researched
Nah i think it was 4
@@dashoe9034 its six originally
I'd be the person who leaves seeds and nuts nearby, and turn the soil in the garden over to expose the worms and bugs.
Mama came in like George if u ever give them a whole caterpillar again 😂 it's so cute
I like the way the chick’s mouths open when the parents bring their food. Wonderful 😊
They share a moment when Daddy comes back in after the first one hatches where they just kind of look at each other proudly and touch beaks, it's the most wholesome thing ever.
what is the time stamp?
If you look closer, he actually brought her lunch.
I saw that too 😌💞
@@Mark-dy7ms Right, I saw that too! Gosh this is still cute
Imagine its happening to me and my crush 😔
I love the little tweet the parents make when they come to feed if the chicks aren’t paying attention
I think the little chicks burrow into the underside of the nest like a cave when they get a little bigger
They kind of have to, because the natural instinct of the chicks is to hide until they hear that sound or see their parents.
Prolly like:
"YOU LITTLE ANNOYING MFS GET YOUR FOOD BEFORE I EAT IT I ALMOST GOT EATEN BY A CROW GETTING THIS SHI."💀💀😂
Вот и родилась новая жизнь

This is amazing! 😍 Thank you for sharing! I got scared for them when the crow made an appearance 😱
One of the best videos captured from nesting to fledgling. Really appreciate your efforts. Animals especially birds make better parents than most human beings. Real caring.
Today is the day that I learned that birds eat the shell.
Probably for minimizing risk of predators smelling and finding the shell and searching
@@MrPacMan36 nope it’s for nutrition, all birds do it csuse how much they loose while sitting it on.
dogs do the same thing, they eat the placenta.
I didnt know this as well.
They r also cannibals and that might be why only two lived hmmmm
It's crazy how much it looks like their mother really cares for them. They aren't human but everything that's going on feels human on a smaller scale watching the two parents tend to their babies.
It always amazes me how much the animal kingdom and certainly birds tend to their young. They could teach a few humans on how to rear and care for a family.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but they selectively starve the weaker chicks by always feeding the strongest first. Resulting in almost guarenteed survival of the strongest, but at the expense of the demise of the weaker majority as there's useually not enough food to raise them all to adulthood.
(notice the one at the far back right when there's five or six, they end up ignoring it after it missed a few meals by being too slow and it was too under developed to waste food on anymore)
No. They are not look like human. Human does look like them. Animal is better in taking care of their childrens than some humans. Lol
Why always that antropocentric comparison
@@JP-pu6zh ok calm down, I was just saying it was interesting seeing the parent child dynamic in those birds, Its something rare for me to witness in animals, and since I'm you know, human, that's what I'm gonna relate it to.
Yeah, being a cameraman in that tight box is commendable.
Love watching them work together to feed their little family
That Caterpillar is like ''what the fuck is happening to me''
LOL
Poor caterpillars. They should go vegan.
@@NursemEzgiFindikkiran lmfao in these days I can’t tell if your serious but wowwwww wtf lmao
@@LosWhipsAnAudi if this was twitter then she’d be serious but this is a yt comment section
😭😭😂😂😂
not gonna lie that crow scared the shit outta me for a second lol
Lol Same here
Crows are a risk when the parent is out. I once saw a black drongo chase a crow. The crow was flying fast. 😂😂
Where was the crow?
@@lazyboyz 8:25
I cried big ass tears when the momma hid her head and was shaking in her wings 😣
OMG! So tiny, so beautiful! The itty bitty mouths opening for food "too cute"Thanks for letting us be apart of this.
Literally such a great couple. I’m so happy for them.
