要点总结
Lovebird pairing guide: sex determination, compatibility assessment, bonding signs, aggression management, and breeding preparation.
Lovebirds form exceptionally strong pair bonds, making successful pairing a critical factor in their keeping quality and breeding potential.
Pelvic width (females slightly wider, but unreliable due to individual variation), behavior (females often shred paper and tuck it in feathers), and DNA testing (most reliable, 3,000-5,000 yen).
Perching side by side, mutual preening, food regurgitation (male to female), and nest material gathering behavior.
Don't mix lovebird species (hybridization risk). Peach-faced lovebirds tend to be more aggressive than masked. Established pairs form very strong bonds (separation causes stress). Pair keeping is recommended even without breeding.
