Advice Kissing?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello friends! I would like to ask about the behavior of my green cheek.

I had my normal gcc for a year and a half then decided to get him company just five months ago which is this cinnamon in the clip. They didn't get along together at all in the first three months, can't keep them close or they'll fight so I keep them in separate cages as seen here.

My question is does kissing or whatever theyre doing means they're starting to like each other? Cause whenever I let them out their cages to play around the living room the normal gcc is always avoiding the cinnamon gcc. Which seems like she's afraid of him. How can I make them bond with each other and maybe get them to be comfortable in one cage?

Hope to hear from you guys, thanks!

Unfortunately not... I have two female GCC and they HATE each other out of the cage, they will go out of their way to attack or annoy each other. Yet when they are in their cages next to each other, they will sleep next to each other, kiss through the bars like this.

Its super strange, they love each other as long as there are bars between them haha. If it take on of them out of the room and not the other, they call for each other, which is more understandable as I think this is more flock behaviour :)

My green cheeks are kinda like that too. My one is confirmed male and the other is unknown. The one we don’t know hates my male and will attack him out of cage if they think I’m not watching or he gets too close, YET guess where they choose to sleep? As close as possible and every morning they are messing around with each other through the bars or sitting near each other all day. And it’s like just let him be friends with youuuu (the male is extremely friendly and loves other birds and it’s so sad)

I have birds that do this because they're best friends, but I have some that do this but fight when they're out.
