A Dozen Eggs Later.....



When I arrived home from Florida, I could hear little cheeps coming from my lovebirds Rudy and Naato's cage. Two weeks later I took a peek into the nestbox and saw two little heads hiding in the corner. This week who should exit their home?....two baby peachface lovebirds! Little did I know when I bought home one of the parents that they would become a pair because I thought they were both the same sex, wrong! One year later here I sit with a total of 4 lovebirds. All I can say is that it's a good thing that this psychic was sitting across the table from me at a friends birthday celebration, and quietly said to me "I wouldn't get rid of that second cage if I were you". I had no idea who she was until she pulled out her card and pushed it across the table to me and my jaw dropped. Oh, I just noticed Rudy has laid 3 more eggs, guess they don't call em lovebirds for nothing!!!!

Oh my goodness, they are so cute! But do they get big enough to eat? :)
You will have to handle them a lot so they get tame. Can they learn to talk?

if there's anymore talking coming from my house I'll go mad!!!
I'll put Mutti in charge of handling them, she has a special method!
