I’ve been having a lot of issues with my lovebird becoming egg bound, so one of the things my vet recommended is putting her on a strict light schedule - 8 hours of light and 16 hours dark. I really want to do this, but my work hours are very inconsistent. Sometimes I work morning, sometimes afternoon, sometimes evening/night...the only time I can put her on a regular schedule is from 10pm - 6am. I can leave the light on overnight in the room she’s in. I’ve done that for the past couple days, but she’s still displaying mating behaviour. I don’t know if it’s too soon for it to start working or trying to turn night time to day time and vise versa just isn’t working because there’s always going to be some noise and movement throughout the day, even if her cage is covered and the room is dark. I don’t know what to do!
