lovebirds

Hi, I have two lovebirds that I've had for about 5 years. They let me hand feed them bread through the cage, but freak out if I try to touch them or put my hand in the cage. How can I tame them to let me carry them around? Or is it too late?

Hi- I had recently taken over the care of 2 lovebirds Romeo & Juliet. Yesterday Juliet became a new momma and layed her 1st egg. my question is: shouln't one of them be covering the egg and keeping it warm all day? What could I do if they do not tend to their eggs? :confused: Thanks much

They still haven't laid anything, In fact they haven't shown any interest in the nesting box at all. It was on the floor of the cage so now I have placed it higher up hoping that they show interest now. I don't know what else to do to get them going. I haven't seen them mating but I have caught...
