That's hillarious! My babies' parents are hardly in the nestbox, they only come in to feed the babies. I'm afraid they are going to chill! Do the parents know what they are doing?

When the oldest baby is about a week old, the parents stop spending a lot of time in the nest. The babies eat a lot at this age, and in the wild the parents would have to spend almost all their time gathering food for the chicks. The babies are old enough to keep each other warm and regulate their own body temperature somewhat. So it's fine, unless you can see that the babies are acting like they're cold.
