A little back story, I keep budgies because I had 15 at one point I've gotten a bit of a rep as a bird man. Anyway I was handed a lovebird to watch (for about a month) a year ago. As I now have a lovebird I was hoping for some advice and suggestions for reading material to brush up on lovebirds. Oscar (The lovebird) has been living with my budgies for about the last 10 months and I've been treating him like a budgie.
He was plucking, sitting on the bottom of the cage and not not eating so I put him in the flight cage with the budgies since he seemed to perk up alot when they where out near him. But I don't really know what to do with a lovebird other then adding a dish of lovebird food.
How do you determine a lovebirds gender? When I got Oscar I was told he was a boy but she seems to have paired with one of my male budgies and claimed one of the food dishes as a nest.
