I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that's laughs at my lovebirds when they fall like that. They're pretty graceful so it hardly happens but it's pretty funny when a bird is hanging out on your shoulder and they fall because they are sleepy and tumble down my chest and down my belly on my lap....that only happened once though he was like a feather wheel. His chirps said oh s**t, f**k I can't stop!
“Not only because of territory, but because she’s a bitch and thinks she’s the alpha” Pretty much sums up what having a lovebird is like in that sentence
FOR REAL HAHAHAHA mine is a female and she’s always a b*tch, even though I’m very sweet with her sience she was a baby. She can lay on my shoulder and give me kisses, but I can’t touch her with my hands or fingers or she will bite me until I bleed and that’s something I can’t change yet 😢
Omg yes! My mom used to breed lovebirds when I was a kid. I still have the scars 😅 Luckily, my pet lovebird today is the most gentle soul I've ever seen in a bird! She 'bit' me once (she was preening me and tried to remove a scab, which hurt!) When I reacted due to the pain, she was visibly taken back and was a bit afraid to preen me again 😅 but lots of kisses and kind words helped her gain back the confidence! ❤️
All I have is my tame budgies. A lovebird just randomly appeared in my yard today and seemed really tame, nearly let me touch him. I opened the window near the budgie's cage and it flew right in. The cage is huge and has a divider, so I put him in one of the divisions. It seems really chill and didn't even mind my hands in the cage when I was changing things to make it more comfortable for it. Now I am watching these videos to avoid making mistakes. (Wasn't planning on having more birds but he is such a cute little birb and there was no way I'd let it starve outside so I guess now I have one more bird)
I applaud your decision to keep him and to inform yourself on the particularities of this species. Lovebirds are quite different from budgies. I guess you might already know, but I would like to add that they can be very aggressive towards budgies, so they shouldn't be near each other unsupervized. That's what I would suggest.
omg a lovebird appeared in my house last week too :P it came back for two days and i haven’t seen it anymore since then, i was alr emotionally attached to it :(
@@irahays3869 well cockatiels are on average much bigger and two to three times heavier than any lovebird. But in principle I agree that lovebird bites are much more dangerous than any other small to medium parrot. A lot of power in that beak
Hey I just wanted to thank you Because I have watched your videos before and they were very helpful! Now my parrot trusts me and i can tell that he really loves me too. I spend almost all day with him and he is very playful and healthy!
I’m lovebird-sitting and this is very encouraging and helpful- clearly, simply-stated too- which I think is really important for anyone’s first time with a bird
Oh dear lord thank you for this video, my bird has been constantly irritated/ mad since I got him and I didn't even notice! I thought he was just feisty. Thank you for this, I will do better.
I hope you keep making these lovebird videos, it really helps me because I just became a pair lovebird owner without me knowing, it was really frightening but your videos are so light-hearted and informative! I hope your channel keeps growing ☺️
My lovebird is afraid of hands! She does step up to me, but she'll always look down at my hand, just like where you showed a scared lovebird. She still does this after two years of stepping up without me moving my fingers when she's on my hand. She's very much a shoulder bird 🤭 sadly I can't give her scritches, but I found that kisses are the way to go! She even makes a specific sound when she wants kisses now! It's amazing! ❤️
It's amazes me how opposite the behaviors of a cockatiel and lovebird are! Glad I found your video, I'll be able to better interact with Jaskier (my lovebird) now!
I used to own a parrotlet who are known to be aggressive and he’s been the easiest and cuddliest bird I’ve ever owned. But he sadly passed away and I’ve gotten a new friend the lovebird holy cow she’s been a whole lot harder to train she can sometimes seem friendly but then goes into guard mode and only comes when I offer some seeds slowly but surely I’ll earn her trust one day
I just got a bird. Wish me luck. I know nothing about them. I just like them..... thanks for the video. Today I will give them space. I want them to feel at home. I will do the house orientation tomorrow In Shaa Allah.😊
I'm still training my little guy, but not that intensive training. I just let him out, and he'll come to me while I work :) I identify these behaviours, so I'm glad I understood when he expressed them ^^ thanks for the video, very insightful!
Great video! Your accent is awesome 😎 I just bought a 3 month old boy 😍 I originally went to the pet store for an axolotl but didn’t make it past this beautiful lovebird! He was so cute, I couldn’t resist 😂
my peachface was hand raised by a local lady so she was very tame when I got her. Her momma thought he was a boy and so did I for a couple years. But the shredding was always there in hindsight. Then one day there was something in the cage, an egg, my boy was a girl! You have to be gentle with lovebirds even though they will bite you. My girl has her timeframe of coming out of cage every night between 7:30-8:30 and she comes to me, lays down on the crook of my arm, lays on warm computer and bites keys, takes a nap. They generally need a quiet home nobody yelling at their cages and making them stressed. Open the door and let them come to you to develop a relationship, and don't get mad when you get laid into and bitten because that WILL happen until you learn to better read their body language, and then even for no apparent reason at all. Introduce them to baths, they are habitual and also defend their cage as their territory but you can work around that. My girl is 16 1/2 years old and still in good shape although she can't fly as good as she used to and I just have to be in tune with that and return her to her cage if she is tired. Big personalities in little packages if you are observant and tolerant of bites no matter what, and enjoy animal's quirks and what they bring to your life. Otherwise you shouldn't have one.
Your video is great and enlightening! I have a doubt, two years ago a Hybrid Lovebird (green and orange) showed up at my house, he entered the Cockatiels cage and started to eat (he was hungry). Since then he has stayed with us and we love him, but unfortunately he is terrified of hands. He comes with us, climbs on our shoulders, loves to be around us, but is very scared of hands and fingers and always attacks when he has the opportunity. With great effort, we manage to slowly get him used to our skin, climbing shoulders and arms, but never in the hand and if you want to "catch" him, don't even think about it because he becomes an attacking machine. Is there any way to educate him so that he gets used to our hands? Thanks.
Any advice for plucking feathers? Mine has started plucking his neck feathers out :( I've picked up a whole new kind of food (expensive, quality), lots more fresh veggies/fruits, toys, and I changed the room around a bit. Going to bring him to a vet soon here if nothing improves. So sad to see it. Thanks, love your channel.
I've got a question, guys, is hitting the ground with their beak really a sign of angriness? Because my two lovies do that all the time, even though I'm not around. I think it can just mean playfullness, but I'm not sure. What do you guys think?
I need an urgent help from you. I am going to live in anothere country where the regulation didnt let me to take my lovebird with me. I have to leave without him. I am dying because of him. my heart has been fired. I an just crying crying I am really emotionally dependent to him. Please tell me what to do. how can I tolerate this? I am like a mom who is losing her child. plz tell ne what to do.
I also recently got a lovebird pair, and I am having trouble identifying their genders. I am pretty sure that the one with a redder forehead is the male lovebird, however that is the same bird that love to chew paper since about day 1, whereas the other one remains scared. The birds are SUPER close to one another, so I’m really hesitant on deeming one bird to be the female one and I need to know so I can feed her more from the cuttle bone before egg laying. Any advice here?
I've found loverbird's are assholes. Sorry! But it's true. I have two and they surely love to chew on you! And like you were told, they're very territorial.
It wouldn’t be a good pet for kids just because they can be dangerous and territorial. Budgies are definitely more gentle, easier to take care of and less territorial. Not to mention lovebirds can be super loud!
Great video, one thing. 4:23 I’d advise against stroking her anywhere except her head, the back as well as most other parts of a parrot are erogenous zones and stroking them can cause behavioral and health issues for your bird. Thanks though!
My bird sometimes moves in a specific pattern back and forth and does this rapid clicking noise and then scratches his head! I think its curiosity or if the bird is bored and want to play
I love this. My mom adopted a love bird and she basically now owns my childhood room. I would like to understand its chirps and calls because i feel its angry? Would really love to know. thank you!
Hi, I like watching your bird videos... I started watching them because I've recently got 2 love birds from a pet shop... trying to tame them but it's hard as there's 2 of them have you got any tips for me please?
You can never truly tame birds that have bonded with each other but they will learn to tolerate you. Its will just take longer than it would if it was only a single bird.
I do have a question : where can we find those birds, outside the petshops ? (i heard so many bad stories about animals from thoses shop, like the ones where they don't treat them well, inbreeding and stuff)
My lovebirds also do beak grinding when relaxed. And my female Shkepaan likes to trim my beard :) So I took advantage of that, put an apple smoothie mixed with egg on my beard so to finally force them to eat some fruit. And my male lovebird Burek always kisses me when he wants to leave from my finger :)
Ive had my lovebird for 4 years and ive only just discovered shes a female and many similarities in her poster and attitude thanks to this brilliant video. My only question is am i too late to teach her anything now or am i too late?

My lovebird falls on the cage floof with a thump sometimes and it makes a really mad sound, then it chills out 😂😂
but it is so funny when loki want to take a shower she fall down from the drinking place to the cage floor hahahahaha
Is it now?
