Question
Hi Chris,

I just discovered that my lovebirds have had babbies, three of them. I think they hatched over two weeks ago. I am wondering if there is anything I need to do for them, change some how i feed them, etc. I have been feeding them 10 times more than regularly cause they eat so much now :) Any help and tips is much appreicated.

Thanks,

Thomas


Answer
Don't worry Thomas. They will keep eating like this. Make sure they have a wide variety of foods to try, especially when the young leave the nest at about 5 weeks old.

Bear in mind that now they have started, they may have another nest very soon, and even a third later.
