I recently got a just weaned Quaker parrot ,Atlas, and my 3yr old Quaker ,Nimbus, is very aggressive (For him anyway). He will fly off and make his way to Atlas's cage and attack him through the bars. (So much for quarantine ) He tries to break out of his cage whenever he hears him and he has started to bite hard enough to draw blood if you try to get him away from or prevent him from getting to Atlas.
Normally I would get Nimbus out and sit and watch Netflix or maybe play a game on the computer with him on my shoulder or the back of my wrist. He would sit and groom or maybe have a quick nap. Now he just makes a beeline for Atlas any time he is taken out of his cage.
I can't get Nimbus out of his cage without him flying off to get to Atlas. I have to get Atlas out to feed him as he's regressed and stopped cracking seed and to interact with him to build a relationship. Which of course makes Nimbus want to attack him more.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this? We've only had Nimbus for about 8 months. Not his first owners closer to 6th. Just in case it's relevant.
