Hi, I bought a pair of peach-faced lovebirds, about 1 and 1/2 months old both (1 male, 1 female), 4 months ago. I have a cage 1.2 m high by 40 cm by 50 cm. They have been going along very well, they are fun and enjoyable to watch, and I provided them with perches, toys, a nest box outside the cage (not in use now, too young for breeding), and small inside shelters. I also approached them and tamed them carefully. I can now feed them with my hand, make them stand on my hand, and tell them where to go when I let them fly outside the cage. I was so glad to have them that I wanted to buy another pair of white eyed lovebirds, even though I read about territorial, emotional and other practical problems with having 2 pairs of lovebirds, but which I nonetheless did less than 2 months ago. I bought (all 4 same age) a male blue masked and a female green fischer lovebird. After they were put together on the first day, some territorial behavior resulted but not very serious. I carefully looked after them since, but unfortunately, the blue masked lovebird died 3 weeks later of internal cancer. It must have got it since birth and I did not see it soon enough. I am left with a happier pair of peach faced lovebirds, and a female fischer lovebird who fortunately seem to be getting along quite well, especially since they have been flying outside the cage together.
I have a few questions:
1. Is a mutation in a lovebird more prone to health problems?
2. Do lovebirds show that they are happy with physical changes or even smiling by relaxing their face and beak?
3. Can I conclude by watching my lovebirds that they are at least comfortable and happy, or a no trouble and peaceful cage with 3 lovebirds does not tell anything about their state of mind?
4. What do you think would be my options, and the best one? I was thinking of buying another male white eyed.
Thank you.
