I prefer these because pellets are less messy, and there is less waste. I recommend that you also offer them washed fresh fruit and vegetables, sprinkled with a vitamin supplement. My lovebirds relish corn, spinach, green beans, apples, oranges and grapes. I also offer my birds a soft-food bean mix daily. Do not feed your bird avocado, chocolate, alcohol or junk food.
Lovebirds thrive best in a constant temperature and humidity environment.
Keep the cage away from drafts, high traffic areas and direct sun. If early morning chatter disturbs you, a dark cage cover will give you uninterrupted sleep after sunrise. To avoid passing on germs to your birds, always wash your hands thoroughly before handling your pet. It is also a good idea to take your lovebirds to an avian veterinarian at least once a year for a checkup. Ask your veterinarian to show you how to clip your bird's flight feathers if you wish.
