2)they only eat sunflower seeds but donot eat any fruits or vegetables if given so what should bdone?

Answer
Sorry for delay - I've been abroad and unable to access my mail.

1. Normally lovebirds of any species do not lay eggs until about 9 moths old, and often later.

2. This is due to poor feeding in infancy.  Keep providing a wide variety of food and less sunflower seed,  and be very, very patient.

3. Two lovebirds will only have a relationship with each other and are only ever likely to play with each other.
