Overfed Crop

i checked on the babies tonight and found something startling. Mom and Dad are overfeeding the babies. There should only be about 3-5 seeds in there. It's to the point the crop is stretching and getting thin red lines. I have to monitor all food now. Until this digest's. I hope everything turns out ok. I really don't want to pull the babies out and brood them.
