¨The Tactics of the Cuckoo¨ sounds like a cult whos objective is to decimate the righteous bird population hahahaha, nice

[@darketernal3]

It's a timing issue with the Cuckoo. They laid the egg in the nest too late. By the time the Cuckoo hatched, the host chicks were already too large to push out. The hatchling will still try until it's exhausted. By the time the instinct kicks off, they're too weak and too small to compete against the host hatchling. You will notice it's still has it's eyes closed while it's host hatchlings already have theirs open. This also adds to the advantage that they can see their parents come in with food before they reach the nest, allowing faster response to feed chirps.

[@butmunchass]

I wonder whether there might be enough food because the older birds might fledge before cuckoo really needs food. If older birds leave then parent birds might have more time to feed cuckoo during cuckoo growth spurt.

[@Intrepid_Explorer]

I love how he's still trying to push 😂

[@SakunaSwonaChannel]

I noticed the 2 babies bird they try to stay away from that cookoo baby…from time it still trying to peck on the host babies, regardless it smaller and weak now…but still evil, I hope the host babies grew fast and left the nest and abandon the cookoo baby!

[@roysha411]

Normally cuckoos hatch earlier. He was put there myb. The two birds grow bigger than cuckoo there is no chance he can survive.

[@hishighnessessaeed7720]

@@roysha411No, they can’t introduce the parasitic chick later as the mother will notice it and kill it. They succeed only by tricking the mother early during the incubation and later eliminating the actual chicks when they hatch to be the only spoiled kid. in this case, the chick couldn’t kill the bio kids and got stuck there facing many challenges like lack of food, variation in size may trick the mother into thinking that the kid is sick by not growing up and thus ignoring him to death. In case, the cuckoo is placed in a nest of smaller bird family and there are siblings that survived his murderous tricks, he’ll outgrow the rest and the mother will think that he’s large enough and doesn’t need food when he’s still young. It can go both ways.

[@sadrabbit53]

Y'all, the cameraman probably isn’t hand-feeding the cuckoo to make sure content keeps coming. Past vids have shown the parents feeding it before. It's also not unheard of for parents to recognize brood parasites, and if they don't kill the egg/nestling outright, then they might feed it just enough to keep it alive and thereby stave off the parasite's observant real parents' retaliatory attacks while prioritizing their native children. That, however, takes discerning and likely experienced parents, and idk about this pair. At this point, it just lo9ks like the cuckoo isn’t getting fed as much (though not necessarily not getting fed at all) because its weakness makes it beg for food less frequently, and it is often obscured by its foster siblings.

[@ezstreete]

Or perhaps the video is edited... The cuckoo is still alive and slightly bigger and there is cuts in the video...I like this concept though......

[@YaelSharon3410]

Well maybe the cuckoo gets fed occasionally by one of the parent birds. Maybe only a bite here and there is enough for him to survive, but not thrive. I suspect the parent birds give him food, not the person filming. It would be a lot of time, trouble and effort for the camera person to feed a bird in the forest, unless he camps right beside the nest to feed it, which i doubt.

[@chengkuoklee5734]

Or maybe they aware the cuckoo mother is around so they keep it barely alive?

in past videos the camera person has intervened in one form or another. The nest is right next to what seems to be a walk-way next to farming land.

That could be how it surviving 😢 some tiny bird nest above it that's not very sturdy, or a predator found it it but dropped a few chicks & they landed in the nest of a natural born baby destruction professional, going crazy with hunger? 😩 I thought I was going crazy for a sec cuz it seemed like he was taking a CHUNK off his brother bird 😮 how could he have the strength to do that?
