*Admin to Maree    Some explanation you can search in `breeding lovebirds/breeding basics/infertile eggs` of this site 

*Maree to admin    There is only ever 3 or 4 eggs at a time 

*Admin to Maree    How many eggs they lay every clutch. It must be max 5pcs. The number of egg they produce can shows us they are `right` pairs  

*Admin to Amy    She performs strange behavior as a change of her surroundings, or it`s her time to lay egg. You can put a nest in her bed to see what is going on next 

*Admin to Mary    Covering cage at night issue, please search it in general care category via sitemap 

*Admin to Mary    Keeping a lovebird in a rounded cage is no problem at all 

*Maree    I have just removed the fourth clutch of infertile eggs from my so called pair of fischer lovebirds can anyone help as to why this is happening. I am pretty sure that they are a pair!! 

*Amy    We have had our lovebird for about two years now
this last week "she" has started strange behavior.. Hiding in her bed and raising her wings why is this? 

*mary    Should i cover the cage during night? 

*mary    i have kept my love birds in a rounded cage..will that affect my birds?im a new owner 

*Admin    This site is newly equipped with a tool of translation into 35 languages. The tool is at the top right column 

*Admin    Hi Roy, thank you for joining us. I think I have to spare some space of this site for a forum discussion about lovebirds. How do you think? 

*Roy    Hi, I think the point is making food not fully occupying the bowl, say 20% depends also how big the bowl. It must be completed with vegetables, etc. 

*gest    thank you... so just decrease the amount of food, right? how much food should male lovebird get for the day? thank you 

*Admin    Some pairs in breeding cage do that, but, not all.  

*Guest    I see thank you. I thouth its something to do with the fact that he is byhimself and wants a girlfriend. When he does that it looks like he tried to feed the baby bird.
How common is that? 

*Admin    To reduce quantity of food in the bowl good enough for a day eating, & it should be replaced daily to avoid bacterial growth. Give & set varied diet made up of seed mix, vegetables, pellet, grains 

*Audra    I`ve been searching for a good reliable Lovebird site...I`ve found it :]

About Lovebirds - Understanding Lovebirds
The contact call:
It's well known that lovebirds can make sounds that don't exactly please the ears. One sharp  sounding call is the so-called contact call. As the name indicates, the purpose of this call is to keep partners and young in touch, even when they move in groups to drinking and eating areas. It also keeps the flock together. If foreign lovebirds should enter a flock, members of the group recognize the outsiders immediately. If there is enough feed and if the young lovebirds have not yet formed definitive pairs and other conditions are favorable, new lovebirds aren't automatically rejected and may be considered as mates. If all pairs have been formed, however, chances are that outsiders will be rejected because they could disturb the peace of the group.

The alarm call:
Lovebirds have a so-called alarm call, which even humans can recognize as such. They use this call when danger is suspected or evident (lovebirds of prey or a dominant member of the group).

The fear call:
Even more piercing is the "fear call" with which you are commonly confronted if you take a lovebird that doesn't know you well into your hand. Lovebirds clearly find this stressful. They have this fear call even as nestlings, and you will hear it, for example, if you put a lovebird that fell from the nest back where it came from.

The contented twitter:
Nevertheless, you can note a peaceable, soft, relaxed twitter, especially in a quite noontime period, when the lovebirds actually seem to sing to themselves.
