Is it bad if i look at my lovebirds alot?

Question

i have a pair of lovebirds but i like to look at them alot is it bad if i do. people say that if i look at them alot they whont nest is that true

Answer 1

No that is not true.  None of what has been said here is good advice.  Lovebirds have a strong reproductive instinct.   You can look at them all you want.  As a matter of fact please do the more you observe them the more likely it is that you will be able to tell if something is wrong.  So please watch them all you want.  Especially if it gives you pleasure.   Heck you can even start making notes on their behavior so you can see how it changes as the nesting progresses.  

Just remember the birds need a nesting box to raise babies.

Answer 2

How much is alot? Sounds like you need another hobby if you are looking at birds in a cage all day... take a walk or read a book, maybe you could go to the library and read up on lovebirds so they can nest.

Answer 3

don't be too close to them in the breeding session. stay like atleast 10 feet away. but if it's not breeding season then go ahead and look at them.

Answer 4

you should never look at lovebirds
