The Peach.-Faced Lovebird
The Rare Lovebirds... trol flock of Normal Greens when working with the mutations and com A Future Focus binations. One of the most commonly asked questions I receive is, "If I mate a Blue bird with a Yellow bird what will I get?" I used to be able to answer that question, however, without knowing the The Peach.-faced Lovebird background of the Blue bird or the Yellow bird, your guess is as good as Agapornis roseicollis and its Mutations mine!

Lovebird Lovebirds Are Small, Active, Happy Birds. They Can Also Be Loud and Nippy. a Single Lovebird Can Be a Great Pet, While
LoveBird Lovebirds are small, active, happy birds. They can also be loud and nippy. A single Lovebird can be a great pet, while a pair of Lovebirds will often bond to each other and not care to spend time with you. A Lovebird will not sing, and few Lovebirds will learn human speech. But they are a lot of personality packed into a tiny and relatively inexpensive bird. If you are looking for a small buddy, who will be thrilled to play with you and snuggle with you, a Lovebird may be exactly right for you. But be prepared for some shrill chirps, a few nips on the finger, and very inquisitive shadow. Hand-Fed? Or Parent Raise? A young hand-fed Lovebird is the best bet for an inexperienced bird-owner. Parent-raised lovebirds are tamable, but it requires a lot of love, patience, and tolerance to bites. Diet A pelleted diet, supplemented with fresh fruits, vegetables, boiled eggs, cereals, pasta, rice, and lentils will produce a healthy, beautifully feathered Lovebird. Many Lovebird breeders also feed a seed-based diet, with most of the other foods as supplements. A seed-based diet must consist of a mixture of seeds and grains. Canary seed, millet, rice, oats, safflower and a small amount of sunflower are the most popular parts of these seed mixes. Corn is often a big hit with Lovebirds, as is sprouted seed. Lovebirds also tend to drink a lot of water, and must have fresh water available at all times. Cage The minimum cage size for a single pair of Lovebirds is 30 X 30 X 18. -

Skull Morphometric Characters in Parrots (Psittaciformes)

Skull morphometric characters in parrots (Psittaciformes). – Ornis Hungarica 28(1): 104–120. DOI: 10.2478/orhu-2020-0008 Abstract Parrots (Psittaciformes) are a unique and diverse avian group and vary tremendously in size, shape, and colour. Mainly distributed throughout the tropics and subtropics, most spe- cies of parrots are largely or exclusively arboreal with several exceptions. The species also differ in diet and hab- itat, which led to different musculoskeletal adaptations of the skull. However, parrots have conspicuous general- ized external features; in this recent study, we tried to increase our knowledge of the cranial shape and foraging habits. A geometric morphometric approach was used to analyse two-dimensional cranial landmarks. We used principal component (PC) analyses on measurements that may be related to diet. The PCs described the relative height of the cranium, the relative length and curvature of the beak, differences in the orientation and curvature of the lacrimal bone and the upper margin of orbits, variation in the size and position of the palatine bone and the relative width of the cranium, and variation in the relative size of the neurocranium compared to the viscerocra nium. The dietary categories overlap in the morphospace but the analysis in lateral and ventral view resulted in significant differences. -
