That's what I was thinking mate! Thanks for the reply dude. I will see if there is anyone else who thinks it's a love bird too?? Or anything other?
 
She also looks like a Lovebird to me, she is gorgeous!

I am not as experienced with parrots as most members. However it does appear to be an adorable lovebird. One of the ways you can tell is its beak. With canaries, the beak is "forward" facing while lovebirds (and a few other parrots) having a more "flat" beak. Again, I don't know much about parrot mutations. So don't count on this response. Wishing you the best.

I would say you have a female Parrotlet., she looks too small and fine to be a lovebird to my eyes anyways. The sounds she makes would tell us. Age....not sure she looks younger for sure but not a baby. Lovebirds are larger than Parrotlets. She is not a canary. She is really pretty! I just watched again this time with sound on, her chirble sounds like a lovebird, but to me she looks more like a parrotlet.

this is a parrotlet, the beak is smaller and has a distinct jagged side
bite....they are smaller more the size of a canary.....also their nostrils are not covered up and look like pepper dots., and they do not have eye
rings.
