Lovebirds are
unlike any other pets. Their short stumpy tails and little bodies make
them
look like
baby birds even into late adulthood. They come in a large variety of
vibrant colours from the bright
yellow and red of a lutino to the deep rich violet of the double factored
violet. They are easy to breed
and it is very exciting for breeders to see just how many different
colours can be produced. Lovebirds
can easily capture your attention for hours on end as they perform many
antics and are often seen
snuggling up to their best friend or partner when napping during the
day.
They can be very
affectionate to either another lovebird or owner. When hand-tame, they
will regularly bond to their owner and always want to be around him/her.
They are very curious little birds and will explore and play with just
about everything you give them. They are easy to look after and make
an ideal companion pet for anyone who does not have the space, ability,
expense, and/or time available to look after the more demanding pets
such as a cat or dog. Additionally, lovebirds in small numbers are quieter
than dogs and larger parrots, making them ideal for those who have neighbours
close by.
