Synopsis
Lovebirds are social birds, and must always be kept in pairs. Keeping healthy, contented lovebirds requires dedicated care. This handbook provides valuable guidance. Designed and illustrated much like Barron's Pet Owner's Manuals, the Handbooks have more pages, even more photos and drawings, and more fully detailed advice and instruction on pet care. Pet owners and people who plan to acquire a pet will find information on health care, feeding, and housing - and where applicable, on grooming and training. All photos are top quality and in full color - and many of the titles also feature instructive line illustrations.

Customer Reviews

A Very Helpful Handbook
The handbook contains a comprehensive survey of the nine species of love-birds, including species that are usually rare as pets. The book provides useful information on behavior and training with helpful insights on understanding behavior and how to treat or prevent damaging your bird according to its needs. What was lacking was detailed information on building suitable cages for breeding love-birds. However, the chapter on genetics and mutations proved valuable both for beginners and expert breeders. I have been breeding love-birds for 8 years, and this book added much needed useful knowledge in a pleasing format, equipped with many photos that enriched the reading.

Brilliant book for novice lovebird owners
Gives all the information you might ever need to know about looking after your feathered friends. Up-to-date information. Fantastic pictures.
Great for younger people who want to know how to look after their pet.
Best book on lovebirds I have read.
