Lovebirds are know to have ONE strong attachment in their lives. So it is recommended that you only get one if you are looking for a strong bond with your love bird. Also it important to purchase a bird that was raised hand fed as they are more likely to attach to you. The only down side to this is if you want only one you need to make it a priority to spend as much time with it as possible. Having a 9-5 job would not be ideal. They would become incredibly depressed and could die. My cousin works from home and has a lovebird, Her bird is literally in love with my cousin and perches on her shoulder for snuggles and kisses all day.

@@Graid I don't know. I do agree with you on some species such as monkeys, whales, dolphins etc. But as long as the lovebird is with their owner 24/7 they are very happy. It's very easy to take them places and they easily hide in your hoodie or your bag. Species interact and bond with other species all of the time. Human and dog. Dog and deer. Lion and Bear. Rabbit and Tortoise. I think you catch my drift.

@@Graid It's actually for the best. Lovebirds can get really aggressive so if you don't want to constantly fight with them just to feed and take care of them it's better if you only get one. Birds always treat you as one of their kind and usually their mate so they're just as happ3with you than they would be with another bird.

Mine actually gets along with my parakeet, my wife and I.... but she`s with me most of the time

She surely could have done some good research before buying a living animal, or at least some basic investigations on the subject as we do when bying a computer or a cell phone! It is also possible to have 2 males (As I do. But if the birds you're buying where not already together, couple or same sex birds, you would need to buy a second cage to get them to know and get acquanited to each others, which may take years). It is also possible to just have one bird but then you would need to spend a lot of time with that bird because you're going to be his sole companion. * By the way, the lady in the video could simply place a fake egg to discourage her female from laying eggs or, simpler, she could just remove all the nest stuff so the female won't be stimulated to ovulate!!!!!!

I have a lovebird and he’s great! The lady should have researched lovebirds before buying them. I do agree that it’s actually the sons birds and he should be taking care of them and done researched before he convinced his mum into buying him birds. All I’m saying is don’t let this video put you off of the lovebirds! They’re amazing kind and lovely birds, no matter if they’re in pairs or just one

My cockatiel is lonely when im not home though, and so i was looking to do some research into possibly getting a lovebird.

Oh sad, this can easily be avoided, female comes to heat only when her nest is ready, don’t give her a nesting box, if there is no safe place for her lay eggs, she won’t come into hear or at least they won’t mate so much.

Interesting info.

lovebirds actually are great pets, so are all birds. Cockatiels, RIngnecks, Lovebirds, all amazing pets. You make choices that might not be great for you but that's just because they arent great for you. don't advocate against something a lot of people like because it doesn't suit your needs. it's ignorant.

Love birds bring positive vibes. With all the chaos in the outside world, it brings peace to the owner. Some love birds are smart. They understand easily.

Thank you actually, I’ve been thinking about getting my mom some but we’re all so busy and have so many other animals so I wouldn’t be getting some anytime soon

Where did u get that small carry case from?

Do you feed lovebirds right away when you just got them and put them in a cage?

if i buy one male lovebird and i get to tame him, can i buy another male one so will they both be freindly to each other but freindly to me too? so like i dont buy 2 male love birds at same time which bonds them both together and not bond with me?

Although lovebirds do not need another lovebird to share it's cage with it still needs a human to share its colorful life with or else it will wither up and die. If you buy two birds they will bond with each other and look so cute snuggled up to each other but since they have each other they might not bond to you.

I realize this is an older video but jeez. Get a bigger cage and more toys, take the nest box away, cover the cage for at at least 12 hours at night. There are things you can do to discourage paying. All those eggs take a toll on their bodies and egg binding is very common and DEADLY in parrots that lay chronically.

arjun johal once birds “imprint” on eachother (pretty much alot of species of birds mate for life). If they are seperated, even by cage it is almost a guarantee that they will each get sick and die(by the way birds are notorious for being able to hide sickness very well) I worked with exotic animals and it happened when people would give up their birds and not tell us they imprinted with eachother. We would seperate them (because birds often kill when they are in a cage with an unwated bird) One particular instance i remember were a pair of sun conures. We seperated them. In a week the female died and the next day the male died. They really do die of broken hearts.

Stephanie Badea, if they are around you alot, they will get use to you and accept you as a friend. How old are they? And how long have you had them?

I completely agree with the final advice of this lady. I do not recommend anyone to keep birds as pets. As much as you are dedicated and kind to them, in the end conclude that it is cruel because the bird spends its life captive. You can't go outside with a bird, while you can travel around the world with a dog. We have had birds like this in our household for almost 20 years, we love them almost like children, we try to please them, we don't keep them in a cage at all, they have freedom of movement throughout the household. If I had a magic wand I would return all the birds from the cage to their natural habitats.

Have two they can be a handful but love them both their also a lot of fun.Their not for everyone I agree people need to do their research before getting one

So no ones gonna talk about cage 😤

Very sad to see this incident and i am very disappointed to see that you are boiling its eggs.I always love to buy these birds and i cannot afford it because it is very costly here.

That awkward stare at 0:00

I intended to get a lovebird for handfeeding.. to create bond with it, but at the shop i got confused after seeing all the beautiful bird, ended up buying two.. which is apparently both males. Nothing much to say, of course they don't get close to me as i expected yet they know me, fly to me when they want to, and happily occupied my living room. Their favourite spot is the curtain rail which is 9 feet high from floor. And they come down to their cage which i placed it high enough only when they're hungry or to bath.

You are so cural

That’s why you don’t put them in the same cage and when you let them out together you have to watch them.

Ok lovebirds are the best ITS SO FUN AND Challenging I have one and have no regrets if you want one make sure you have a big cage and lots of toys :D

Lot of queer information being spread here. Okay first, I adopted my lovebird because I would never “buy” an animal. At this point we know that the pet trade is just inhumane. Secondly, I work quite a bit. So to compensate for that, I wake up early and I bring my lovebird in his cage into the bathroom with me when I shower. This has multiple benefits. It’s additional bonding time, it’s an activity, we talk and play peekaboo, and the steam is very good for his sinuses(birds living in the home often suffer from sinus infections). I put him in his cage in front of a window where he gets daylight, not hard direct sunlight or anything like that and he can see the yard. I also when leaving let play some pretty string music with lots of high resisters. I have a camera in the house I occasionally check up on him with and talk to him. And when I get home out he comes I make a big fuss and he spends the whole night hanging out with me until he puts himself to bed between 10-11pm. He’s a very happy bird. Having a 9-5 isn’t going to kill him. Keep his cage clean, give him fresh food and water and as much stimulation as possible and you can expect a very happy, well rounded bird.

I have a love bird hes dumb but I love him😂🤗

This wasn’t pros and cons this was just a straight up hate video on lovebirds
