Lovebirds Male or Female?
 
:) HI -
I have a female lovebird that is starting to lay eggs like a chicken, HE HE. TRUE, she is laying them one right after another. Would like to be able to shop for a male but not sure how to tell them apart. Anyone out there that can help me with this, let me know. THANKS!!

Hi bird crazy,

Which species of lovebird do you have?

It is difficult to physically differentiate male and female lovebird. However, one of the different is how they perch and the tail of the individual... having said that, it is just a comparative and it is just a guess...

Refer back to your case, in my humble opinion, if the female lay too many eggs, it is difficult for her to lay fertile eggs. One more thing is that laying too many eggs will effect her health...You should provide lots of calcium for her :)

p/s: Good luck
