Hi,
I've had my lovebird Sherbet for 13 years now and I know she's old but I don't know roughly how long I have left with her.
I know different types of lovebird have different lifespans, but I can't find anywhere how long Sherbet's type lives for.
I've seen pages saying 10 years, 15, 20+.
She's a Lutino Peach-faced lovebird and I've had her since she left her parents so shes almost 14 now.
I've noticed strange behaviours in her recently and I did take her to a vet who said she probably just had anxiety and that she was fairly old.
She's a lot sleepier lately and had been plucking feathers around her neck. She doesn't have mites as I've checked and treated her. She can also be sweet one minute and then grumpy the next. She has always had an attitude but the speed at which she changes is quite quick. She is super sweet with my boyfriend (I think she has a crush
) but now she's even being mean to him on occasion.
Can anyone give me any guidance?
