Re: Aggressive male

awww he is being super defensive of 'his' territory. I
scoot them out of nest box with a plastic spatula, close off
the entrance hole and check eggs/babys. This is with nest
box attached to outside of cage or flight.

No he shouldn't be so aggresive he makes her bleed. I've
not had one do this. Marital fusses yes. I did have one
male chase the female around because he thought it was her
fault I was checking things but he didn't make her bleed.

Is this their first clutch? Could be he is learning. I
wouldn't rule them out for breeding nor would I seperate
them forever. Gosh no don't take off the nest box with eggs
incubating.

All I can do is wish you well.
