2 baby lovebirds fighting?

[Melis]

Hello!

I have a 5.5 week old peach faced lovebird and a 3.5 week old fischer lovebird.

I thought its a good idea to get 2 birds while they were young to get along. But it seems like they are fighting? They open their beaks to one another and go for each other throats and feet.

Will it get better? Or only worse? At the moments they don't do harm to one another cause they are still young.

Are these babies from the same clutch or different ones? If different ones, it's quite possible that they don't like each other. How long have you had them together?

Their beaks are not hard enough yet to do any serious injury but give them another week or so and it will be. If this continues, you will have to separate them so they can see each other but not reach each other. They may become friends at a safe distance and you can try introductions again.
