We purchased a lovebird from a garage sale about 4 years ago. We were told his mate had died while laying an egg. A couple of years later we introduced him to a female lovebird in NY. The female got all excited moving her wings around the way they do when getting ready to mate. That made us more sure that our bird was a male. He didn't seem that interested and would peck at her when she came too close. Perhaps that was because he's not a male. A year later I found an egg in his cage in our home in Rhode Island. We have no other birds in our home in Rhode Island. The egg is about a quarter of the size of a chicken egg. If he is a she than why for the last 4 years were there no eggs? Do lovebirds need a special nesting environment to lay an egg? He must be a she. What's puzzling is that for so many years our bird did not lay an egg. I thought female lovebirds constantly lay eggs. Our there any other female lovebird owners out there who can tell me how often their birds lay eggs. Why was the female lovebird so interested in our lovebird. Don't lovebirds know if the other lovebird is a male or female?
