    Default This is a great lovebird book for beginning lovebird owners

    I just bought it earlier today, it has lots of information and it answers a lot of questions I still had. I'm only half way done reading it, and truely convinced I can take the best care of my birds.

    I have the other one by Barrons (Vriends)- Lovebirds the Complete Pet Owners Manuel. I also have the Coloured Atlas of Lovebirds, which is great for mutations. The manuel is a good read, but does not go into great detail, as it is a small book (I imagine your handbook is similar). While it is an asset, I'd also suggest seeking other resources as well (this website, breeders, etc.).

    I have that book (The Lovebird Handbook) and love it! I still refer to it sometimes and read it from cover to cover about 10 times when I first got Oliver. It's one that we often recommend on the forum.

    I wish I had a picture of the first lovebird book I ever bought. It was from the pet store where we got the cage, food, toys, etc.

    Gracie shredded the cover.

    I have that book only it is for finches. Another great lovebird book is called An Owner's Guide to A Happy Healthy Pet:The Lovebird. It covers all the aspects except breeding. It even has backgrounds on the main lovebird breeds. The book is by Pam Higdon. Everytime I read it I learn something new
    ~life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget the ones who dont and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance take it. If it changes your life, let it, nobody said it was going to be easy they just promised it would be worth it.~
