lovebird

Hi, i've had my lovebird for 2 years, and the last year he's been chocking maybe 3 times a week regularly. When he chokes, he moves his head up and down in a gagging way, for maybe 5-10 minutes, until something white comes out of his mouth (bubbly - i think bile). He suddenly started vomiting...

Hi! Can anyone advise me on how much formula should a lovebird baby get per feeding? I want to make sure I am giving him enough per feeding. The lovebird I have is 41 days old. I see also that he has some interest in millet, but it is still exploring it gradually. Thank you!

I have a lovebird chick who suddenly has a sweeling around his face. I am hand feeding him because his parents abandoned him. I am from a small city and no vets at this time. Can someone suggest some remedy or what should I do? Please help me. Thank you.

Hi all, happy holidays! TLDR: struggling with frequent regurgitation. What to do when it comes up during clicker training? I “got” my lovebird Lola a clicker and some training toys for Christmas. We are on our third day of clicker training and I have some questions about regurgitation. Lola...

The chick has been fed warm eggfood for 2 days since It had to be taken for spoon handfeeding after an emergency (Eggs hatched and mother did not feed chicks so a chick died). I expected the formula to arrive today but delivery has been delayed and should be getting formula tomorrow. I check the...

I'm trying my luck, I know this page is predominantly American based and I am in Australia. But I want to find the most places I can. Roach is a 3 (I believe) year old Green cheek Conure. He's a very loving, funny and spunky little green guy. And God I love him with all my heart...

Hey everyone! I just picked up this little lovie from a family who is moving away, and I was curious if A: he is a black masked or b.m. x fischers hybrid, and B: if he is a black masked is he a heavy pied cobalt? I'm no expert but I do have lovebird experience, however I've never seen...

Hello ! I am new here, and super excited to have my new lovebird join our home on sept 16 2024 ! Powder has been getting use to us about a month now and starting to play with toys, still eating, drinking and spending time with us. We have noticed that Powder sneezes at times and sometimes has...

Hi all, Haven't been on in a while, hope all the birdies are doing well! I'm officially working from home permanently and wanted to upgrade my set up. What do those who have flighted birds in their office space think of mesh vs leather chairs? Looking for insight re: material, cleaning, comfort...

I have a pair of lovebirds who laid a clutch of 5 eggs, and all five were abandoned. Two of them were fertile and one was stillborn. The other hatched after a few days in my incubator. I bought formula online and she seemed to be growing well until recently. Turns out the formula I got was fake...

Hey all! I need some advice for how to keep a heavily-clipped bird who was once flighted safe as they explore. My lovie, Pippin, was originally found outside in a hedge. The lovely vet at the emergency clinic Pippin went to took very good care of them, but also did a…not-great job at clipping...

I can’t seem do figure out what mutation he might be? He’s only 1 month so I know his “true mutation” will come out when he goes through his first molt but can any of you guys guess what mutation he might be? I’m guessing orange face and maybe pied (considering his tail feathers) but I might be...

I've had my lovebird for almost a month now, and everyday I give him millet from my pinched hand, and he takes it. But whenever I try to give him millet from the palm or the back of my hand, he just seems to ignore it and doesn't come near. What should I do? I feel stuck and don't know what the...
