love bird

Hi all, I’ve usually headed to these forums and browsed but decided to finally sign up. I rehomed 2 love birds in August, they were an unsexed And bonded pair since I didn’t want one to be alone or need to rely on me. Peach(Fischer’s love bird) was completely feral, she did not like anyone or...

Let me preface this by saying: My lovebird is not scared of me. So far we have had an amazing bond and she is constantly around me or on me. Even though i have some toys around me, she will play with the toy and then go back to biting me. I think she does it to get my attention or she thinks its...

Hi! So i’m writing this as a first time love bird owner and wanted to hear your opinion. Currently my birdie has a smaller cage that she uses only for eating, drinking and sleeping at night. The other 12+ hours she is outside in our apartment, flying, playing etc. (supervised no worries). To...

Hi guys! So, so far i have had a great progress with Luna. We are indeed bonding, she started eating from my hand and i think she trusts me so i am very happy. Also from time to time she likes being scratched However my question is, what’s next ? Except the fact that she eats from my hand, she...

Hi guys! I have had my lovebird for 3 days so far. The breeder i got her from says she is around 4 months old.She is pretty tame (although she wasn’t hand fed). However i have noticed some changes in her that make me worried. The first day she was out of her cage for 6h exploring the apartment...

Hey guys! So far our baby Luna has been a blessing to our family. We love her very much. However since she came home, her sleeping ritual changed and she sleeps more at day and is more active at night. So i decided that covering her cage at night would be the best solution. However i am...

So yesterday was the first day Luna was out of the cage, exploring the room (supervised ofcourse), she has learnt where her cage is, doesn’t have any problems going in her cage, eats a lot, drinks water a lot. However i’m concerned about her sleeping a lot. Yesterday she went to sleep at about...

Hey guys! First time posting and first time being a lovebird owner (okay i will be getting her in 2 days but nonetheless). I have previously owned two budgies and a cockatiel so i do have some experience. However, since this is my first time owning a lovebird i decided to ask you some questions...

Hi everyone! I’m new here and have a question. I brought home my 10 week old lovebird last month and he will not eat any fresh fruits or vegetables, I’m concerned for his health. He loves his seeds but won’t even eat pellets mixed in either. I’ve tried about every fruit and vegetable even...

Good afternoon everybody, Yesterday my male lovebird passed away, he was at the vet since Sunday evening. He left behind his partner and their 2 kids. So far, my female lovebird has not been calling to him. Nor have I seen her sad. I have her with her kids who are already 4 months old. So they...

Hello all. I’m needing some advice on what I should do with my lovebird. I have had him for almost two years now and he’s always been a bit of a problem. I love him and I don’t want to rehome him but I have had enough of the biting and pecking for absolutely no reason. When I say no reason it’s...

I really hope this is the right place to post about my new birb and me. let me introduce myself. my name is Nimal. I've never had a bird before and believed a lot of myths about owning one. but my friend got one and all of those misconceptions just shattered and I just wanted one. but I wanted...

Hi, I have 3 lovies, Zazu, Fig & Moose. Zazu & Moose are both handraised Peachfaces while Fig is a rescued and now "semi-tame" Fischer lovie. Firstly I'd like to address that no, I am not housing all 3 together. Zazu & Fig are housed together and have been for 6+ months while Moose is my newest...

I am a bit concerned about my lovebirds eating habits. She is currently on pellets and chop and gets millet everyday as a training treat. However, she only eats around 1/2 tablespoon of pellets. From what I’ve heard most people give their lovebirds 1-2 tablespoons a day. However, she’s been...

Hi I'm a new member here I have a 2 months old lovebird baby. I'm curious on what type of lovebird he is. Is he a peach-faced or fischer lovebird? Is he a lutino because he got red eyes? Is he an opaline? And will he change color later on when he reached adulthood? Is there any way other than...

Alright so I'm new to breeding. I have a pair male and female lovebirds and they have some eggs in the nest. As of right now they have laid 5 eggs in total. However the initial 2 had cracked. They have breaded before and the last time they breeded only one of the eggs hatched. After I found out...

Hello! I should preface this by saying my bird is a peach-faced lovebird. His name is Winnie, he is young and healthy. Lately I've noticed a behaviour that might develop into a problem though! Often when he receives a treat in his cage, some of the pieces fall to the bottom. Recently he's...

Hi everyone! I made another post similar to this, but on the conure page. In the next year or so I'm hoping to get my own personal bird, so I am in no rush to make a decision. After so much research I am torn between Green Cheek Conures and Peachfaced Lovebirds. On week days I'm typically...

Both mom and dad are split for ino

Looked at my girl today to see that her beak was chipped in a weird fashion. Is this a normal part of beak growth? It doesn’t seem like something urgent, no blood or scabs or anything, but you can never be too sure. Also, her feathers look like that because she just finished having a bath.
