Had a look through the images I took and only the one image I posted previously shows the sixth chick. I usually take lots of images when the young are in the nest as they move around a lot and spotting them all can be difficult.
Anyway a short sequence of what is probably the oldest chick as you can see plenty of feather development already.

She soon left once the chicks had eaten everything
