A hand-raised Dutch Blue Lovebird is extremely affectionate and playful. They are an excellent bird for a beginner as they are friendly, hardy, and easy to care for!
Claire - 2010-08-17 Our male bird died and we don't know what to do about the female. Will she be OK alone or does she need a new partner? Will she accept a new partner? Please help soon! We don't know how old they are but we had them 4 yrs. + they had three clutches.
BK Jayaraman - 2010-07-13 I don't know what type of love birds I am having. But I have four birds in which two are plain white and yellow and the other two (blue and green) have some strips of different color (white and yellow) on their wings and head. Could you please help me to find it?

KATHERINE - 2008-02-26 My little Dutch Blue is named Kiwi. She talks! I have had her since she was just 6 or 7 weeks old. Bought her from a breeder and finished hand feeding. She is single and I work at home so she can be out and with me at the computer whenever we want to socialize. She is as gentle as a lamb and is currently on a few eggs despite my efforts to avoid this. She allows me to feed her on the nest small bites of nuts, fresh veggies and bits of cheese from my fingers. She loves to crawl up my sweatshirt sleeve and come out the neck while saying "Kiwi, Kiwi, Kiwi". Amazingly, she doesn't scream or shriek at all. I have hand raised exotic birds for 28 years and this little girl is quite exceptional. I believe any animal is affected by the owner and recommend this type of pet to one who is patient and gentle. Quiet surroundings help and other people must not tease the little guys either. I hope Kiwi is around for 20 years or more.
kat - 2007-11-20 I love my lovebird, but I wouldn't call him a good pet for a beginner. Lovebirds require a large amount of time to remain hand tamed and can be somewhat dominating. In essence they're a big parrot in a little parrot body. My little guy has a Napoleon complex a mile wide, but that's what gives him his remarkable personality. Lovebirds can be great companions and each and every one has its own unique personality.

I love our love bird baby it is soooooooooo cute.
My lovebird snickers can somewhat be noisy and he does take some time to be tamed cause he isn't well tamed now but soon he will.
I like this african bird very much.....how 2 train these birds....
