Think Again Lovebirds
Lovebirds are very pretty birds but they also require a lot of time and care.
Lovebirds are active, cheerful and beautifully decorative. These petite 'pocket' parrots are very intriguing, however, these birds are pets for enthusiasts and they are a long term commitment.
Lisa Jarvis, Lantra’s Industry Partnership Manager said: “Lovebirds can live up to 20 years, so you need to be sure that you can commit for that long before buying these pets. The most time-consuming part of caring for lovebirds is the effort required to tame them, a delicate process that needs to be fulfilled so you and your lovebirds have a long and happy life together.”
So if the demands of caring for lovebirds just aren’t right for you or your special one, perhaps a donation to a bird charity such as the RSPB or a trip to a bird sanctuary this Valentine's Day might be the perfect gift instead!
