one pair and one male now breeding

Post by mommybird » Wed Jan 07, 2015 11:52 am

this mismatched one pair and extra male has been fine, but we just hatched 2 babies and the extra male is being a little extra mistreated, i think they are seeing him as a threat. should i put him in a separate cage for now? thanks!

What species? Trios often don't work, especially when breeding starts. If there is any aggression at all, you will need to remove him.
3 Purple Grenadiers, 1 Goldbreast + 1 cat.
