   Lovebirds always fight with other birds, they should be kept by themselves.

   Thanks. His feathers have grown and he can fly now. I take him to the park every day to see if he wants to join the wild quakers. I have been feeding him things that I see the wild quakers eating, just in case he decides he wants to forge out on his own. So far he has been calling out to them but he doesn´t seem to want to leave me. I hope he never does;-)

   Quakers are actually quite hardy & survive well if released (or lost in most cases)from captivity. In the U.S. there are actually states that ban quakers because of their ability to survive & reproduce when released. They can compete with native species & cause endangerment.

    Sorry, another question if you happen to know. Monk parakeets are native to where I live, in Argentina. Do you happen to know how feasible it would be to return a domestic monk parakeet to the wild and her surviving? I am investigating that now because I realize that in their natural habitat is where birds are happiest.

    Do you keep your birds contained inside so that they don´t fly away or because they are your pet do they come back if you let them outside? I am considering allowing my monk parakeet´s feathers grow so that she can have more fun.

    You mean a lutino mutation OF a peach-faced. Peach-faces aren’t mutations. They’re a species. They also aren’t the largest of the lovebird species. Abyssinians are. Also, that lovebird wasn’t playing. That was pure aggression.

    Haha I love how that cockatiel stayed out of the way. :)

    It doesn’t suprise me in the least, to see your lovie “play fight” with that quaker. For one thing, its a peach-faced mutation the largest and most aggressive of the lovie species. But i have to give the quaker, props for sticking up for itself. Pound for pound, there is no compairson regarding size, but beak for beak there is. Thankfully the cockatiel is keeping itself out of the fray.
