Please meet the new member of the flock, Olive, the Peach-faced,Dutch Blue Mutation, Lovebird.The birdshop owner who sold Olive to me said that it was about 5 months old. That simply means it takes longer to tame it.
As you can see, Olive has no ring on its eyes, but it does have eyelids and cute, big black eyes.
It loves to sleep inside a towel too..
Don't you agree it's charming? Well yeah,except that it's quite aggressive that in the first week it had bitten Elmo's toe twice, Goldie's thrice and Baby Blue's once. It bit Baby Blue's toe until it bled a couple of days ago, and just last night, near bed time it bit Goldie's toe until it bled too, even when it was locked out of their cage.
Wondering why it behaves this way...
I've been noticing that it has been preying upon the two keets and always trying to find an opening into their cage. One time I saw it perched on Godie's nest box inside the cage and as usual, Goldie defended its property.
Wondering, if it was being territorial, I mean, I wonder if Olive wants the nest box. Could it be possible when it hasn't even reached maturity??
