I am adopting a lovebird, I know a lot about them but was interested in hearing people´s personal experience.

Yes, I have a certain one in mind but another person is looking at her this Friday. If they are not interested I am next to look, yay! She is a Sex-Linked American Cinnamon White-Faced Violet Lovebird.

are they noisy?

are they noisy?

They are chatty and have high-pitched sounds. They like to scream and mimic whistles and screeches. Comparing them to a conure, they are not noisy. To budgies and cockatiels, they are shrill. They are the noisiest when they want something.

Yes, they are not quiet. But compared to bigger parrots they are.

Yes, lovebirds would not be good for you then. They are known for the lack of speech. Sadly, a lot of people do get parrots just to hear them mimic sounds. Parrots are really intelligent, very emotional, and definitely expensive.

I would definitely take good care of it, I was just saying it would be cool to really hear a parrot talk.
