I suspect that the issue is that the third server is not set up properly at the parent server. It is fine and dandy to add NS records to your zone file but you need all the servers to be in the parent (whois ?) records so when someone asks for "who is the authorative dns for mydomain.com they get sent to the right servers. I use http://www.dnsreport.com/ a lot for troubleshooting and verifying dns stuff.
