If you decide to buy two lovebirds, don’t be surprised if one or both of them is hostile toward you. They may move away or flap their wings when you put your hand into the cage. This is because a pair of lovebirds will bond with one another right away. They don’t need your attention because they can keep one another entertained. Bird pairs shun human interaction especially if one is a male and the other is female. A male and female may also mate and have baby lovebirds, which will bring them even closer together. If you’re certain you want two lovebirds, try to find two males. Generally, male lovebirds get along with one another better than females. Two females can squabble with one another especially after reaching the age of sexual maturity. In addition, if you get two lovebirds, be sure to buy them from the same group. Getting one lovebird and adding another one to the cage later can be risky. Oftentimes, your first lovebird won’t accept another one in its cage.
