The original best friends were Xaf and Kiva, but Xaf's far too rough for Kiva who is a disabled bird and um.. has mental difficulties. So now Kiva hangs out with the weaning babies and doesn't leave the nursery. He dotes on them and they get to role model from an adult. It's more Kiva's speed and ability.
Cricket is rough and tumble. He and Xaf are never apart now. Except we don't let Cricket fly, and we allow Xaf a couple of flight feathers. Literally - 1 on each wing. He can make pretty good hops and can do some dive bombing, but nothing crazy, which is good, Xaf's a Cereal killer in feathers (yes, the pun is accurate).
