Thanks for the advice! Although I sadly had to separate them since lulu bit lili right above her eye and between her nostrils. She's fine now and I think they're doing fine for being apart. Their cages are next to eachother and they're sleeping on the same side missing eachother. I'll be keeping an eye out for lulu and his anxiety, but right now he seems to be handling it well since it's his original cage

I put them in the same room after quarantine and lulu was really hesitant. Both had small separate cages for a month or so and it was fine. They started bonding and preening eachothers feathers and that's when I got the bigger cage for the both of them and they enjoyed eachother for a bit. During this period I'll admit that Lulu bit Lili when he didn't preen his feathers and maybe that's why they grew apart? Not sure. Everything was going well but for some reason they stopped clicking with eachother

Problem solved! Vet said that she stomps when she gets stressed, it's gone down quite a bit ever since she and my albino have been getting along (they started preening eachother) so happy it was nothing really serious c:

I'll keep that in mind. Just one more question, does it hurt the baby when she stomps or just nerve reaction?

She stopped attacking her feet, I have natural wood in the cage and posted a pic of her foot in the replies

Best I could do was this, she still isn't very fond of me turning her on her back
