Quaker isn't scared of anything. One of the love birds is
in "love" with her but she just hates him. She hasn't hurt him
but she acts like she's going to nip him, then he leaves her
alone for a while. There is not much difference in size. The
SM however is a different story. She went after him once.
Fortunately he was setting on my arm and was able to pull him
away. I'm sure if he wouldn't have been so shocked and I
hadn't acted so quickly the results would have been
disastrous. Quakers are great birds but they are not scared of
anything. When I first get her my roommate ignored her when
she wanted to be picked up. She hopped off her cage stomped
all the way across our big house and bit him on his toe. I
about died laughing, but the point is you can have a Quaker
and a CAG but don't let them alone together because the Quaker
thinks they are the King or Queen of the roost and aren't
scared to defend it. Good Luck
