Question
Can we feed baby lovebirds cooked cream of wheat and how often?

Answer
Hi, No-Name,

You haven't provided enough information about the baby lovebirds in order to provide an adequate response.  Additional information I would need at a minimum:  How old are these baby lovebirds?  Are you syringe feeding them?  Are you handfeeding them 100% or are the parent birds feeding them also?  How much experience do you have with parrots and handfeeding babies?  What type of handfeeding formula are you using?  

Cooked cream of wheat can  be fed, if it's fed at the correct consistency and temperature, but it cannot be the only food fed to baby parrots.  More information is needed from you about the babies before more information can be provided.
