Long term commitment is required . Lovebirds are popular first time pet birds. Lovebirds will attack spray millet with gusto while ignoring other more nutritious foods, so only offer it as a treat. Lovebirds need a large clean cage, at least 24 inches wide, that will allow for a lot of activity for these little energetic birds. Purchase the largest cage that your budget and space will allow.
Safety is of the utmost importance when purchasing a cage.
Think of how much time your bird will be spending in his cage. Bar spacing, or any other gaps that are too close together can catch toes and beaks causing injuries. Likewise, with spacing that is too far apart. Scroll work is attractive but can pose a safety hazard. Be sure to check for sharp edges and doors that are not easily opened, to prevent accidental escapes.
