My society finches keep kicking one this one nestling, its happened three times now.

How old is the nestling?
Is it time for it to fledge?
Is it jumping out on its own to explore?
Is the nest too small for all the babies?

Sorry so many questions. Its unusual for a society to "kick" a baby out of the nest. So I am wondering if something else is happening.
