I am getting a lovebird too. The peach face one and I did a lot of research on them. Q1: lovebirds love to cuddle and love to be with you. You would have to give them 4 hours to play/ take care of them.Q2: it is easier to tame a love bird at a youger age.Q3:well that matters if you want baby bird get a girl if you want to stick with one cuddly bird get a male.( im getting a male ).Q4: I say go to a pet store near by and ask them to trim it for you.

Yeah i think im going to go the same just have it stay as a indoor bird.

I have a love bird they are a lot of work if you want to train them make sure to do some research and good luck

I'm pretty interested in these cuties, especially the peach faced ones.

To all you lovebird owners, I have a few questions:

1. Is it true they're not "family" bird but rather just "one man" bird? will they attack other family member or guests? is it not possible to make one friendly enough like a dog?

2. Do I have to raise one from a baby or is hand taming a youngster easy enough?

3. Which is better? a boy or a girl bird?

4. Also their beak can get long right? What can be used to trim it beside cuttlefish bone?

My plan is keeping it as an indoor bird, because outdoors theres an aviary of canaries and finches.

Obviously I will let it get fresh air but at night it'll be sleeping indoors in its cage.

Thank you
