Love birds


How can I tell how old my love birds are as I they were already grown when I got them


Answer:

Hi Tony,

Unfortunately there is no way to know the age of an adult lovebird. Very young lovebirds have darker beaks or other ways that indicate it is young, but by a few months old, it looks like an adult. A very old bird might have cataracts or mobility issues, but often a very old bird never shows any signs of being elderly. So a 2 year old bird could look just like a 12 year old bird.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
