Bighting rosellas

Postby demeries » Sun Oct 17, 2010 5:24 am

Hi,
I have a pair of rosellas, i first had the male then i got the female. These lots few day I noticed that the male is bighting the female. I dont now but can this be because the male is much older than the female? It doesn,t seem that the female is happy it think she is scared when he goes to bight her. I would be pleased with some help and advice how they could be happy
Thanks for any help

I would separate them, have them each in their own cage.
The biting could escalate to something worse...you shouldn't leave the female around the male.
