I got home from work and hubby said, Check Uccella, SnowPea beat him up today. OK,,,so I check him,,,holy crap! First! I'm piffed at hubby for not breaking it up, then I see my poor blind in one eye baby and I'm in tears..I cleaned it up, put him on Metacam and Baytril. I don't know what got into her, she's never bothered him before. Now, I must keep them separate , in fear she'll try to kill him..

Sorry Uccella got hurt. Hope he will be OK. It's hard to predict if birds who get along will suddenly start being aggressive towards one another.

Poor little guy! :( I hope he recovers soon. It's shocking sometimes what our sweet little fluffs can do when they feel so moved. I agree that your husband should've done something - I'd be angry, too.

Aww poor guy! :( Was it another dove that did it? I'd be mad at hubby too unless he discovered it after the fact.

He's seems OK, preening and napping,didn't like taking his meds today. I'm home so I can watch them. SnowPea is banned from the 3rd bedroom, where he is recovering.

It's not unusual for previously bonded birds to turn.
Red and Blue had to be separated after 3 years together as one day he turned on her and nearly killed her.

We had the same thing with our Sengal Sophie and our Quaker Crash (Rip for other reasons.) They loved each other and would swap and share each others cages. One day she decided she hated him and bit a hole in his chest. We figured something happened so we doctored him up and took him to the vet. 6 months later she did he same thing, tried to kill him. Bit another hole in his chest and lacerated up under his wing. I had to pull her off of him. She was on top of him holding him like a falcon does prey with her claws and lashing at him. He just laid there and took it like he loved her so much he was willing to die under her. They were separated for the rest of his life and still perked up and strutted every time he saw her.
