Is this good or bad?

[BackyardinWales]

I've been seeing this for the last couple of days, but not really sure what's going on. Is this a good thing or would it be a bad thing if the boys weren't separate to the girls?

I've noticed different behaviours between the boys and the girls at different times, but like I said I don't really understand this. Thanks.

Looks like they are trying to work out who is dominant, if they weren’t separated they’d likely fight, when my birds flare their neck feathers like that they usually get into a squabble

They would fight if not for the barrier. Can you block that off so they can’t see each other? I’d be concerned one would get the beak caught and damaged in the 1/2 inch HC if the behavior escalates to lunging.

Dominance thing... for sure. Flared tackles as a fight sign.

They're trying to fight. Not really a good sign imho.
