Monty has always been thinner than Mitzi, due to problems with his beak and his feet. I was feeding him with some porridge and Mitzi came over expectantly. I told her it was for Monty and to go away (which she did). A bit later I was feeding Monty with some peas and apple that were in the fresh food bowl. This time Mitzi started throwing the remaining peas and apple out of the bowl and then she started displaying to me.

Mitzi wanted you to feed her too. She doesn't think it's fair that you are giving Monty all that attention.
That reminds me that I haven't had porridge for a while. Chy really likes it.

How have Monty and Mitzy been getting along? I know sometimes Mitzy can bully Monty and you were concerned you may have to separate them.

Much the same really. Mitzi can be a bully, she will chase him off perches and pull his feathers although this is usually because she wants to get to where he is and it is the only way she knows to get him out of the way. She does sometimes seem to just chase him around for the fun of it though. She does kiss him as well, both of her own accord and if I ask her to. When Mitzi was away in the animal hospital in 2019 Monty was very sad, he wouldn't eat or play with his toys. As soon as I got her back home she wanted to go to Monty and give him a kiss. I think their relationship is quite complex.
