what was there dropping like of the birds you lost was it loose was they bringing up any corn vomiting did they start to star gaz keep looking up into sky as if they was in a trance as could be paramixo bud have you sent any crop swabs or droppings off to be tested as could be a host of problems they could of picked somethink up when sitting out did they go anywere near house roof that had moss on as could have bad fungul infections but its a guessing game best thing to do is iver get an avian vet to do post mortam or send crop swab and droppings off as sounds like you got a major problem going on and it wont get better till you find out whats going on in your loft

 

all the best.
