Background: I believe Chico is a male and Bella is a female but I have not had them DNA tested. They have been in the same cage for years and rarely interact but if I remove Chico from the cage, Bella becomes irritated and loud. Bella is not hand tamed.
Today when I woke up, they were making a lot of noise which isn't usual for them. So I watched them for a bit and saw that Bella was chasing Chico away from the food dishes. This has happened once before. Last time, I put my hand in the cage and fed Chico by hand. He was happy and she hasn't done that since. Today I tried feeding him by hand and she chased him away from my hand, which is weird because she never comes near my hand. So I took him out, fed him, and put him back. They were fine. Now I just looked over and she is just chasing him around the cage. He isn't trying to eat, she is just chasing him. She isn't attacking him but she is touching him with her beak.
