Hey ekkie mind hive!
For those of you with a male and female in your flock do they often squabble? Like get into little fights? Our adoptive pair we got have been together for a few years but the male is 3 and the female is 16 and since they have joined us he is at least once a day being agressieve to her in some way - over toys or our shoulders or if she is near his cage balcony.
Tonight he flew across the room to get to start a fight because she walked over his half of the cage even I know females are more often like this but it’s really only him as she is very timid
Is this sort of normal? We jump in to safely break the mini fight up but also don’t want to do anything that he sees as rewarding his behavior
I also understand that some of it may be his age. Some may be the new house and that we are only 6 weeks into them living with us.
Any advice?
