Lovebirds as pets
Planning to get lovebirds as pets? Here are a few things you must know before doing so:
They are social creatures
Lovebirds are social annd they thrive on companionship– either from another lovebird or from daily interactions with their human.
They can be a bit too loud
Lovebirds are quite vocal and can chirp loudly throughout the day. So keep this in mind before getting the chatty birds as your pet.
They need a spacious cage
While lovebirds are small creatures, they need a large and spacious cage to fly, play, and exercise to stay healthy and happy.
They need daily out-of-cage time
Lovebirds need some time outside their cages every day for staying mentally and physically healthy.
They can have a long lifespan
With proper care and love, lovebirds can live up to 10–15 years. So be prepared for long-term pet commitment.
They are intelligent and curious birds
Lovebirds are smart. They need toys and puzzles to prevent boredom which can lead to destructive behaviour.
Bonding with them takes time and patience
Building trust with a lovebird requires patience and time. Interact with them daily, handle them with love and care– and seen how your bond grows overtime with them.
They need regular vet care
Like any pet, lovebirds too need regular avian vet checkups to stay healthy.
