I just brought home a female lovebird. She will be 1 year old on Oct 1st. What upsets me is that she had clipped her wings. I'm not a fan of this. How long will it take for them to grow back? Also what is the best diet for a lovie? Thanks

The feathers will be replaced during the next moult. That will likely be in the early spring but could be before then depending on how quickly your bird settles into your home.

I have most of mine on a pellet/seed diet with veggies and a little fruit.

Thankyou, I was so upset. I will make sure he eats good. She's a stinker already.
