So, I just moved back in with my family and they've had a lovebird for about six years. No one plays with her or pays attention to her. She's well fed, always has water, but she gets NO socialization. I've been pretty upset about it and I figured since I live at home again, there's no reason why I can't be the one who steps up to the plate. But the thing is, it has been about six years.
I've put my hand in the cage a few times and talked to her, seeing how she responds. She always sings when I talk to her, but she's very aggressive and scared when I try to touch her--I'm sure this is to be expected. I really just want to make sure she's leading a happy, full life but I'm not sure where I should start. She also doesn't have a bird bath and I read that lovebirds love them so I'm picking one up tomorrow.
Any help would be appreciated it.
