I recently brought home 2 lovebirds and gave each their own cage. When I let them out to play, the (suspected) male immediately goes into the (suspected) female's cage and starts eating her food, as if it isn't the same food that's in his cage. At first, he would listen when I told him no and moved toward him. She helps by going in and making him leave, but usually not immediately. I don't know how to get him to stop. I know it aggravates her, but she seems to have mostly given up on trying to keep him out.
Is not letting them both out at the same time the only way to keep him out of her cage? Would it help me to bond to them if they weren't allowed out together? (Note: They are not at all tame right now.)
