In this article we’ll look at some of the most suitable bird cages for lovebirds.
First, you need to choose the right location for the cage. It should be placed in a room that is not too hot or too cold, and where there is plenty of natural light. The cage should also be far away from any drafts. Second, you need to choose the right size cage. A lovebird needs a lot of space to move around and exercise. The larger the lovebird cage, the more comfortable it will be for the bird.
The smallest lovebird cage size that you can get away with for just one lovebird is 18”L X 18”W X 18”H. If you intend keeping a pair of birds, the cage should measure 24”L X 18”W X 24”H or larger. A rectangular cage is a good idea as it allows more flying space for your lovebirds.
A play top will be equipped with a place for the birds to perch. Some play top cages have toys included too. Lovebirds are “hookbills” who love to climb, and horizontal cage bars allow for this. Place the cage in a family-centered area so your lovebirds feel like they are a part of the family. To provide a sense of security, place the cage against a wall.
Look for a cage with bars spaced no further apart than ¾-inch to prevent your birds from escaping. Ideally, the lovebird cage should have a sliding tray in the bottom to catch spilled seed and feces.
Birds love to splash and play in water. There’s a reason gardens all over the world have gorgeous birdbaths to entice our winged friends to drop by! Some birds are fine with a bowl filled with around 1–2 inches of water. Lovebirds don’t tend to use the water to bathe, but they love to dip their heads in for fun. And they absolutely need moisture on their feathers to keep their plumage soft and vibrant.
Lovebirds need a variety of perches and toys.
Lovebirds burn a lot of energy every day, and they need to get a good workout. That’s why it’s crucial to provide your lovebird with a variety of perches. You should provide your lovebird with the following types of perches:
Natural branches
Wooden dowels
Coconut coir
Scaffold boards
Vertical bars & ladders
