Toko & Kiza do not get along. You can see how upset Toko (far left) is with Deku preening Kiza. She slowly inches closer and Kiza tries to keep her distance until Toko hits the threshold. Kiza aims for Toko but taps Deku on the chest instead.
I think it’s important to show this kind of stuff because not all birds get along. I never really put them together but occasionally I work with both Toko & Kiza to at least get them on better terms. Deku is the part of the equation that makes both birds snap at one another.
If you remove Deku, both Toko & Kiza go about their business and leave each other alone. If Deku is placed into the situation and gives either bird attention, the other bird gets jealous & instigates. So I generally do a rotation of which bird is out at one given time.
