Curious as to whether anyone knows a difference in behaviour/character between Red-fronted Kakariki and Yellow-crowned Kakariki?

From my experience the yellow-crowned males are a tad more aggressive, yet both species females seem to be very sweet. However I'd love to hear other peoples experiences. :)

Red-fronted BEC: (Haru)

Yellow-crowned BEC: (My dear Muta [R.I.P.])

All except the one closest to the viewer (red-fronted-Haru) are Yellow-crowned.

I wish I could chime in but I don't know of anyone on this forum, let alone on other forums I've been on that have experience with both species. Kaks just aren't very common as pets, I'm afraid. :(

Mmm. I've noticed not many people comment on my Kakariki threads. Perhaps I should just find an experienced Kakariki breeder and talk to them..
