We Adore Our Lovebirds!

  • Lovebirds have a zest for life, with big bird personalities in small packages.
  • Outfitted in beautiful colors, they rate at the very top of the cuteness scale.
  • Their non-stop activity keeps us laughing.
  • They’re opinionated and funny – like having your own personal soap opera, except cuter.
  • Musical cheeping fills our homes with cheer.
  • Always curious, these little birds like to be near the center of activity, “chatting” with their humans.
  • Lovebird pairs like to be near us, but are rarely shoulder birds. They prefer hanging out with their Lovebird buddies, and don't need much dedicated time and attention from humans.
  • When tame, single lovebirds can be sweet little shoulder birds. Singles require more attention from their humans because they see you as their mates!
  • Usually ravenous, so easy to feed.
  • You’ll never need a 'paper shredder' if you have lovebirds around.
  • And finally, when in pairs, we think they're perfect birds for people with busy lives.

We're Pico and Picasso two gorgeous green black masked lovebirds.We were purchased five years ago at a flea market and some people had us all that time. We were never let out of the cage, we were on a bad diet and we had no experience of being handled by people. We were given to the humane society because our people got a cat, at least that's the excuse they gave. So now we're in a Mickaboo foster home learning that there is a big world out there of fun things to do, good things to eat and fun people to be with! We love our pellets and millet treat but say no way to veggies. We do like to play with toys and we are very active. We don't like hands at all but once you get us, we will sit on your finger or shoulder and little by little, we are learning to step up. Our foster mom can't believe how good we are with people overall since we had never interacted with anyone for the first 5 years of our life. At least we're now with the good folks at Mickaboo who can show us people can be nice. Our ideal home is a home where we can stay together because lovebirds love to flock! Our foster mom says the most unique thing about us is that we all have violet on our tail feathers. Purple on a lovebird -- how cool! We'll fill your days with all the beautiful colors of the rainbow and our cheerful singing. How have you gotten by all this time with out us? Call Mickaboo today as we can't wait to meet you!
