lovebird

ok so I have hand-fed lovebirds before, the first clutch I had I totally hand-fed and I didn't have this problem though. The second clutch i hand-fed some but also let the parents mainly care for them. I was forced to put these in a brooder and hand-feed them myself because the daddy lovebird...

As a few of you (Although since I posted about another bird type before, you most likely won't be in this forum) might know, I've been looking for Conures. So I went to the Local Avian Store, Golden Cockatoo. There I found that Conures weren't the right bird for me. Luckily for me, two employees...

Hello everybody, I am new here in this forum. First of all: sorry for my not so good written english... I am Serbian, from Belgrade, and live in Italy for several years. It is very nice to see that there is a lot of people that love their parrots and take so much care. I will shortly present...

My lovebird Juliet has not layed her 2nd egg yet,..it has been 36 hrs now. I don't know what to do here. She is just having a hard time it seems. I have been up all night with her, just to make sure she is ok. What could I do to help her in this situation????? Is this normal? I feel so bad for...

My 9 week old peach-faced lovebird Penelope :)

I have had my Slate Masked Lovebird, Token, for a year tomorrow. He was bought at a pet store and is not hand raised (I live on a small island in Canada and there are no breeders here). We have made extremely good progress, he was horrified of me for months, would not come out of his cage and...

I recently got a new lovebird. She was very lively yesterday, chirping and hopping around her cage. I gave her some slivered almonds (I looked it up online and many sources said it was ok for her to eat them), and for the next three hours she was rummaging through her food bowl... According to...

My Lovebirds name is Pityu, as i'v told several times. He's a nice parrot and a good companion, but he is not hand raised or anything like that, so he is willing to hop on to my arm or shoulder and some lucky times when he is calm, steping up on my finger. Lately i'v noticed a very strange...

long story short about 3 months ago i got two lovebirds. one is a peach face and she was vary calm and quite and then started to screech a lil here and there. now jump fwd to present time, from when i take the blanket off the cage in the morning till i put it back on at night all she does is...

The babies are already 3 weeks old and I'm handfeeding them, the oldest has green feather tips and black feather tips towards the end of the wings. The baby itself is a dark gray color and the fuzzy feathers are whitish. The beak has a black top towards the nose and the end is orange. The...

My 5 week-old lovebird was attacked by my other lovebird pair and practically ripped off all of its feathers off its back! It wasn't bleeding profusely but I did manage to clean up most of the blood. The wound is still fresh, no bleeding, but I wanted to know if there is anything I can put on...

1.) Does your lovebird grind his beak before he goes to sleep? I've had two out of three do this, and I was wondering if it was the species I have (fischer) or if it was just a general lovebird behavior and my peachfaced was the exception. Also, when your birds were babies, how much did they...

I know its hard to tell the sex of a lovebird, but i know there are some realy talented parrot people here:) So basicly i think its a HE cause he makes paper stripes but he cant put them in his feathers even though his trying. He is pritty small and but he is having a "big" stomach wich is true...

Hey. :) I adopted a lovebird a few days ago. She was a breeder whose mate had died. I worked at a pet store which specialized in birds, so I do know the basic ways of taming a bird. She is an enigma to me, though!! She is comfortable around me- she'll land on my head, shoulders, and loves to be...

Hey there, have been looking for parrot forum for a while now. I've recently finished school and found myself with alot more time on my hands. Because of my love for birds, but lack of experience with them... I bought a locally bred pearled cockatiel (just over 3 months old now.) He was very...

So about a week ago one of my female lovebirds laid four eggs. She is bonded with a male, so I believe they are fertile. Though I have bird experience, I have not dealt with newly hatched baby birds. I saw in a few places and was told that I would not necessarily have to hand feed the babies and...

Hi! My name is Samantha, and I have long been a parrot enthusiast. In my early youth, I had two little budgies that were kept as family birds, Bluebell and Key-lime, whom I grew to love dearly; I soon had a flock of my very own, and began to work at an avian rescue. I adopted two cockatiels...
