They’re extremely social creatures and they need quite a lot of companionship.  They may not be the best companion if you’re busy a lot and it’s important for you to have an undisturbed space.  If you’re busy a lot and they’re very attached to you, they may need to be taken to a bird care center regularly for care.

Well, I suppose a lot of things need to be thought about for a pet of that sort. The ideal enclosure needs to be very spacious, so the bird can move around and spread its wings. The bird needs to have a safe perch to sleep on and to keep it from getting too cold at night, since it has very little body fat. And they do need lots of food -- lovebirds need to eat four to eight times per day, which would get quite expensive.

Are lovebirds good pets?

My understanding is that they’re pretty high maintenance pets.

How so?
