First seperate them. Then only let them out together when you are with them.

Just like two kids who don't like each other. You can make them tolerate each other bud they will probably never be friends.

I consider Rambo a 6 year old boy with Myrtle being his 2 year old little sister. Little sisters can be pests when an older child wants to play alone. Rambo is heavier and could kick her butt but holds back. Myrtle never knows when to quit unless I intervien.

are they fighting over something or just because they don't like eachother? i try to keep their cages with food dishes as far away as possible they can be very territorial especially :corella: s.even if something doesn't really belong to them if they think it does they don't want anyone else touching it.my :corella: has taken over all most everything but my :gcc: is more laid back so he flies off rather than fight over a branch that mya has decided she doesn't want him using same goes for toys.
