My favorite lovebird is Lucky
My favorite lovebird is Lucky, so named as it was our first clutch and she was the only one, of six, that survived when I put the bark chips in the nest. We do not have an aviary breeder, rather, our lovebirds are paired off in separate birds cages. The best way to tame babies quickly is to remove the babies from the next when they are about two weeks old and hand feed them. This way, the birds get the best of both worlds: the immunity conferred from their parents and the tameness that comes from being handled by humans. Our lovebirds are abundance weaned so that they are happy, well-adjusted birds.
