Hi, Im sure that unlike Banggai cardinals, Pyjama release their fry & are not mouth brooders.

My pjama cardinals have carried eggs on and off for years, never seen any yound though. From articles i have read they release a lot more smaller young than the emperor cardinals. Have a look at the link below,
