Question
Hi my yellow male has been flaping his wings and squaking alot at my felame bird and what looks likefeeding her with out any food and shes been agrsiv to him whats wrong?

Answer
Hi, David,

When a male feeds a female beak-to-beak, this means they are pair-bonded.  This is a precursor to mating.  She may be aggressive to him because she isn't ready to mate, etc., yet.  So, nothing is really wrong, it sounds like a natural thing going on to me.  Now if the female becomes so aggressive that she draws blood, etc., on the male, you may need to separate them.
