Nikko and Dante on the Same Perch for First Time

Postby Naurthon » Sun Nov 13, 2011 9:09 pm

I managed to get Nikko and Dante to share a perch together today for the first time. Nikko wasn't too sure about it, and there was a little bit of beak sparring when Dante got into Nikko's space a couple of times, but no serious aggression, so I was very pleased. Here are a couple of pics.

Wonderful progress.

I am going through about the same thing right now. Myrtle (the little sister) torments Rambo (the big brother) until he knocks her off the perch and makes her fly. They don't hurt each other but they do beak fight now and then. She picks at him until he retaliates. If I split them up they call each other (by name).
