Themost common lovebird species in captivity, they are prolific breeders. At least seventeen distinct Peachfaced mutations exist, allowing well over 100,000 possible color combinations. Only the Budgerigar ( parakeet) comes in a wider array of colors. They can still be found in the wild, in Southwestern Africa-- around Namibia and Angola.
Are you looking for a colorful feathered companion to have as a pet? Perhaps a lovebird is a great choice for you. Lovebirds belong to the parrot family and can live up to 10-12 years. They thrive better when they are bought in pairs because these birds develop close-knit bonds with other lovebirds and even with people—hence their name. They are intelligent, affectionate, and well-known for their vibrant colors. The lovebirds’ blend of colors is often what catches people’s eyes when considering which bird to adopt. Lovebirds’ plumage is of a combination of colors on their body and face, ranging from green, yellow, peach, orange, violet, teal, or white. Their beaks even vary in color! Here is a list of the most common color blends of lovebirds that would make great pets. Top 5 Lovebird Colors in the World 1. Peach-Faced Lovebirds Image Credit Hans Braxmeier, Pixabay The peach-faced lovebird, or rosy-faced lovebird, got their name by their distinct coloring. These lovebirds have rosy pink or peach-colored faces and throats. This color gets darker as the plumage reaches their foreheads, changing to an orange or red color. The plumage on the rest of their body is a vibrant to dark green. Some of these lovebirds have yellow-colored chests. Their beaks are a bone or horn color. 2. Fischer’s Lovebirds Image Credit Danita Delimont, Shutterstock Also known as the eye-ring lovebird, this bird has a color combination of green, yellow, and orange. Both sexes are usually the same color pattern. The plumage on their backs, chests, and wings is a vibrant green, slowly fading to golden yellow and then a dark orange color at their neck. Fischer’s lovebirds have a signature white circle around their eyes. The tops of their tails can have some blue or purple feathers. 3. Black-Masked Lovebirds Image Credit Susan Flashman, Shutterstock Like other lovebirds, the black-masked lovebird gets its name from its distinctive black masking on its face with prominent white rings around its eyes. However, these lovebirds are also known as the yellow-collared lovebird due to the yellow plumage on their necks and upper chest. The rest of their bodies have the signature bright green plumage, with their tails sometimes having some blue accents. Their beaks are a vibrant red. 4. Violet Lovebirds Image Credit Athit Pradasak, Shutterstock The violet lovebird’s plumage varies from light lavender to a deep purple. These lovebirds also have a white collar of plumage around their neck and upper chest. Depending on the mutation of the Violet Lovebird, they might have a white face of plumage or a black mask. Violet lovebird will also have a light, peach-colored beak. 5. Australian Cinnamon & Orange-Faced Lovebirds Image Credit Shutterstock The Australian cinnamon & orange-faced lovebirds have similar color patterns as the Fischer’s lovebirds. They have red and dark orange plumage on their face and the plumage changes to yellow around their neck and part of their upper chest. The rest of their body is the signature lovebird vibrant green. What makes this lovebird stand out is the ruby-red eyes they have when they are young. The eye color fades as they get older, but the plumage remains bright. Colorful Lovebirds There are other lovebird colors, but these are the most common among lovebirds that are available as domesticated pets. There are other species of lovebirds that live in the wild. They are amazing to watch but do not make good pets as they do not do well in captivity. No matter which color variation or mutation your lovebird has, it will be vibrant and lovely to look at. In addition to their affectionate nature, the plumage of the lovebirds helps make them a popular and well-loved pet.

Lovebirds are adorable birds to keep as pets since they are cuddly, just as their name suggests. These little “pocket parrots” are colorful additions to a family and a relatively low-maintenance bird for beginner owners. There are a total of 9 species of lovebird currently discovered globally. Not all of these species are commonly kept as pets. Three of these species are most popular to keep as loving companions. Habitat and History of Lovebirds All of the lovebird species that we have found call the continent of Africa their home. Lovebirds tend to live in small flocks in the wild. They are all part of the Agapornis family and are closely related. There are only three lovebird species that are commonly kept in captivity. These include the Rosy-Faced Lovebird, Fischer’s Lovebird, and the Black Masked Lovebird. Many lovebird species have two or more common names, making it easier to refer to them by their scientific names in general conversation. Image Credit Praveen Kumar Varshney, Shutterstock In the wild, some lovebird populations are becoming a cause for concern. These include the Nyasa, Fischer’s, and Black-Cheeked Lovebirds. They are not on the endangered species list yet, but they all fall into “threatened” and “vulnerable” categories. In captivity, these birds are thriving. They are some of the most popular bird species to own as pets since they are so active and exciting. They have curious personalities and remain forever playful and social. They often form intense bonds with their owners and are known to be affectionate birds. 1. Rosy-Faced or Peach-Faced Lovebird Agapornis roseicollis Image Credit Tracy Starr, Shutterstock Rosy/peach-faced lovebirds are the most common lovebird species to own as a pet. Their beautiful plumage and cute faces are what most of us picture when we think of a lovebird. They are relatively easy to care for as well but can get aggressive at times. It is best to be careful with them when you first begin your interactions. Appearance The common names for lovebirds often describe their appearance, and this one is no different. They have rosy pink faces and throats. They tend to have a darker orange or red shade above their eyes and on their forehead. The plumage across the majority of their body is dark green, fading into a black rump. Their feet and legs are grey. These beautiful birds typically have dark brown or black eyes with a horn-colored beak. Habitat The Rosy-Faced Lovebird is native to dry areas within Southwest Africa. They are not picky with their surroundings and will live in open countrysides, woodlands, mountains, and even semi-desert regions near water sources. Size This species of lovebird is cute and relatively small. They total about 7-8 inches from head to tail tip and only weigh just under 2 ounces. 2. Black-Masked or Yellow-Collared Lovebirds Agapornis personata Image Credit Chichkanova Anastasiia, Shutterstock This lovebird has two common names since there isn’t a significant agreement regarding which of their features are more prominent the black masking on their face or the bright yellow collar underneath. They are another common pet species and are a bit easier to own since they tend to be less aggressive than Rosy-Faced Lovebirds. Appearance Starting from the top, these birds have a black head that looks like a mask around their eyes and beak. The mask feature is made even more prominent by the white rings around their black or deep brown eyes. Their beaks are also brilliant in a bright, stand-out red. Underneath all of this is a collar of bright yellow fading quickly into a green that runs the length of their bodies. Sometimes their wings or tails can have blue accents. Their feet and legs are grey. Habitat The Black-Masked Lovebird is not as widespread as the Rosy-Faced Lovebird. They are native only to the northeast of Tanzania. However, their subspecies have been introduced into Kenya and Burundi with some success. Size Males are slightly larger than females in this species. However, the birds still won’t weigh over ounces and are often even smaller than Rosy-Faced Lovebirds, coming in at a maximum of about inches.

Fischer’s Lovebirds Agapornis fischeri Image Credit Danita Delimont, Shutterstock Fischer’s Lovebirds are the last of the common pet species, but they stand out from the crowd with their brilliant and highly varied plumage colors. They are popular because of their extremely playful nature, but they tend to be quieter than other parrot or lovebird species. They are energetic and social and are often very good at bonding. Appearance The Fischer’s Lovebird is primarily covered in vibrant green-blue plumage with slight color changes across the chest, wings, and back. This color fades into a golden yellow on their neck and steadily turns orange and brown on the tops of their heads. They have dark orange beaks and rings of white around their eyes. Habitat These birds are only native to Africa’s small region along Lake Victoria’s southern belt in Tanzania. Climate change has caused some of them to migrate to Rwanda and Burundi. Size These are among the smallest lovebird species, only reaching about 5 inches from head to tail and weighing between ounces. 4. Nyasa or Lilian’s Lovebirds Agapornis lilianae Image Credit Ward Poppe, Shutterstock Nyasa, or Lilian’s Lovebirds, can sometimes be found in captivity. However, they are often only kept by breeders or collectors since they are so difficult to breed. They are one of the populations that are in relative danger of dying out. They are one of the least studied of the lovebird species, partially since they are rare. Appearance The Nyasa Lovebird appears relatively similar to Fischer’s Lovebird but with much more gentle colors. The front of their face and the top of their head is a rosy red or orange shade. This fades into light orange and then yellow down their heads and on their chest. The rest of their body is a bright green, with some blue tint on the wings. They have a white ring around their black eyes and a bright orange beak. Habitat These birds have a wider native region but far fewer and smaller flocks. They live in areas of Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Size These little lovebirds come to a whopping maximum of inches from the top of their heads to their tails. They have less mass than other species, weighing between ounces. 5. Black-Cheeked Lovebirds Agapornis nigrigenis Image Credit Smiler99, Shutterstock The Black-Cheeked Lovebird is not to be confused with the Black-Masked Lovebird. They were initially thought to be a subspecies of the Nyasa Lovebird but have since been recognized as an individual species. Appearance These birds are primarily covered in dark green plumage on their wings and lime green on their underside. This fades into a light brown on their chest and then into an orange. The top of their head and around the beak is a dark brown with white circles around their eyes. They have bright red beaks. Habitat Black-Cheeked Lovebirds are native to southwestern Zambia. Some of them have been spotted in Zimbabwe, Namibia, and Botswana as they migrate for water sources. Size These birds average inches in length and weigh about ounces at their heaviest.

Black-Winged or Abyssinian Lovebird Agapornis taranta Image Credit Martin Kominko, Shutterstock The Abyssinian Lovebird has quite a different appearance compared to the other lovebird species featured above. They are rare to find anywhere, although they have been gaining some popularity as pets throughout recent years. Appearance These birds have a bright red beak and head and do not have rings around their eyes. From the top of their head to the bottom of their tail, they are vibrant shades of green. The only exception is their black underwing. Sometimes, females are entirely green without any shades of black or red on their bodies. Habitat The Abyssinian Lovebirds are native to the mountainous regions of Ethiopia and Eritrea. Size These birds are usually larger than the other species of lovebirds. They are normally 6-7 inches long and weigh an average of ounces. 7. Madagascar or Grey-Headed Lovebirds Agapornis cana Image Credit David Havel, Shutterstock The Madagascar Lovebird is native to Madagascar and can be found on some neighboring islands as well. They are not currently kept in captivity. Appearance Males and females have different color patterns in this lovebird species. Females are entirely covered in green plumage with some darker shades on their wings and along their back. Sometimes it is paler on their chest. Males are entirely covered in a pale grey color, almost looking off-white. Habitat These birds are native to the island of Madagascar and live within a rainforest environment since they need plenty of water to survive. They can also be found on some neighboring islands. Size Madagascar Lovebirds are the smallest of all of the lovebird species and measure 5 inches or less in length and weigh between ounces. 8. Red-Faced Lovebirds Agapornis pullaria Image Credit Ward Poppe, Shutterstock Red-faced Lovebirds are beautiful and have an attractive demeanor. This combination has resulted in many attempts to breed them in captivity, all of which have been met with failure. They have particular needs that only their native environment can satisfy in nesting, companionship, and diet. Appearance Red-faced Lovebirds have stunning green plumage all over their bodies, tails, and necks. Their only color difference appears on the front of their faces, forehead, and beak. This color is normally a peachy-orange. Habitat The Red-Faced Lovebirds have the largest native area. They can be found throughout all of the tropical rainforests of Africa that run along the equator. The countries they show up in include Uganda, Sierra Leone, Angola, and Liberia. Size They are about 6 inches long when they reach full maturity, and they normally weigh around ounces. 9. Black-Collared or Swindern’s Lovebird Image Credit Stavenn Agapornis swindernianus 00, Stavenn, Wikimedia Commons SA Unported The Black-Collared Lovebird is another scarce species. They are not kept in captivity since they have a specific requirement for native figs in their diet. They are also quite shy of all creatures and are typically spotted very high in the trees they call their home. Appearance These birds only have a few markings on their body to set them apart since they are primarily covered with green plumage. Otherwise, they have a distinctive black collar around the back of their neck. Habitat These birds also have a large range of land that they can potentially call home. This includes the rainforests of Africa, similar to the species featured above. You find them in the Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Central African Republic, Uganda, and Liberia. Size This species is average for lovebirds, being about 5 inches long from top to tail and weighing around ounces. Featured Image Credit BravissimoS, Shutterstock

Hybrids – Are you getting what you pay for??? There is a lack of knowledge on the types of lovebirds and hybridization is rife, particularly among the eye ring species. This article should hopefully make things a little clearer for the beginner to ensure they are buying pure birds. You should always buy your stock from a reputable breeder or pet dealer to ensure you are getting what you pay for. You will find that these will offer better value than other pet stores. Just because a pet store is a large chain that has a store in a shopping mall does not mean the staff will have knowledge of what they are selling you. Do your research before you buy. The ethics of genetic purity is a different debate altogether, but ask yourself why would you pay top dollar for a hybrid when you are being told it’s a pure bird? It’s a bit like buying a purebred dog with papers only to find it is crossed with something else. Crosses between eye ring Masked, Fischer’s, Nyasa and Peachfaced are quite easy to spot but inter crosses between the eye rings can be harder to spot to the untrained eye. The descriptions here refer to the normal or wild type colouration. Hybrids can still be attractive birds but the colours tend to be duller and the birds are less striking than the pure form. These are suitable as pets only. Under no circumstances should they be used for breeding. Eyering/Peachfaced crosses are normally sterile mules but inter Eyering crosses are fertile. Species should also not be kept in a mixed colony so cross breeding cannot occur. Should accidental cross breeding occur any offspring should be destroyed. Masked/Fischer’s Crosses The most common form of hybridization but also the hardest to pick for the novice buyer. The Fischer’s has a bright reddish/orange band around the forehead, cheeks and upper breast, fading to yellowish on the lower breast and green belly. Excessive darkness through the forehead, cheeks or head can indicate a hybrid. The breast should also be predominantly orange; too much yellow can indicate a hybrid. There should also be no yellow collar around the neck. The masked must have a pure black head; any hint of colouration in the fore head, excessive orange in the breast feathering is a good indication of a hybrid. Nyasa crossed to Fischer’s or Masked Any darkness in the head or cheeks. The rump should be pure green; any colour in the rump indicates hybridization with Masked or Fischer’s. The beak should be white at the top, fading to red where Fischer’s and Masked have a pure red beak. Peachfaced crossed to eye ring. Looks nothing like either species of bird. A peachfaced should also have no black in its face or head. Any hint of pink, redness or orange in the beak is usually a give away. Do not be confused with young birds that have a darker coloured beak with some black near the top The Photo presentation will hopefully give you a clearer picture of what to look for, comparing the hybrid birds with the pure strain. No two Hybrids will look the same but there are some characteristics to look for. Aaron Whelan Identifying Hybrids The top picture shows a Blue Masked Lovebird. Note the jet black head and cheeks, and white collar. The middle picture shows a Blue Fischer’s Lovebird. Note the white forehead and cheeks,grey head and collar. The bottom picture shows a hybrid bird. This bird is neither Fischer’s or masked, but has a mixture of features from head is neither jet black like the masked, nor the forehead and cheeks white like the Fischer’s, retaining a somewhat muddied and less brilliant appearance when compared to the pure form. Normal Masked vs Normal Fischer’s The top picture shows a Normal Masked, note the jet black head and cheeks, yellow breast and collar. The bottom picture shows a Normal Fischer’s. Note the red/orange forehead and cheeks, fading to yellow breast and green body. The head is slightly darkened and the cheeks are orange. These are mature birds, young birds that have not fully coloured may not be as bright. Masked/Fischer’s Hybrids These birds may look like masked but they are crossed to Fischer’s. The head is not jet black but look washed out with a suffusion of orange feathering. The chest and collar are not yellow but have a high proportion of The birds on the left have a slight orange coming though on the forehead orange coming though in the breast and are somewhat duller than the pure form. Fischer’s/Masked Hybrids These birds appear to be Fischer’s but are crossed to Masked. The birds on the top are shown with a pied Peachfaced. Note that the heads are too dark, the cheeks are dark and there is no bright reddish/orange on the forehead. Again the birds on the bottom are discoloured with dark head and cheeks, lack of bright reddish orange on the forehead. The general appearance is muddied and less brilliant than the pure form. Peachfaced/Eyering Hybrids These are the easiest Hybrids to spot. The bird on the top is a blue peachfaced. Note the absence of any black on the head and the horn coloured beak. The bird on the bottom is a Hybrid between a Blue Peachfaced and a Blue Masked. Note the black in the cheeks and the red-apricot colour on the bib. Also note the reddish tinge to the beak.
