Bizarre behaviour

So I have a 8 month old sennie and a 2 and a half month GCC. When I'm alone with them, they are both sweet as pie... Lovely natures. Playful, loveable, affectionate. As soon as my hubby is around, my sennie doesn't really want to know me, and my GCC becomes incredibly nippy.... To the point of drawing blood! That little beak is very sharp!
What could be causing this behaviour and how do I modify it?

If hubby is encouraging this behavior, he is the one who must discourage it by showing both birds his displeasure...you probably can't do anything about it yourself as it looks like hubby has been chosen as favorite human.....

Good luck.....

Hubby is most definitely my sennie's hero, but Chewy (GCC) is a mommy's bird through and through. Will get hubby to discourage the rough play though... Hopefully that will help. Thanks for the input!
