Black-cheeked Lovebird population numbers have severely declined since the 1920s. The WPT is working to help protect and boost their remaining numbers. Black-cheeked Lovebirds live in a highly restricted range. They are affected by trapping for the wildlife trade, persecution and habitat loss through drought and changing agricultural practices. How WPT makes an impact The World Parrot Trust, along with a number of scientists and conservation groups, has been involved in conservation and research for the Black-cheeked Lovebird. Studies have mapped the distribution of the species, helped to estimate numbers, identified habitat requirements and evaluated threats. Recent work has focused on trialling the use of nest boxes to replace lost nesting trees, carrying out genetic studies to better understand the connections between species and plan for breeding-for-release programs, ongoing monitoring of populations and inspiring local communities to become stewards of these birds through educational programs. {projects_take-action} IUCN/CITES Status Vulnerable / Appendix IIPopulation About 10,000 Vital statistics Size 13-14 cm in Weight 40g oz Range Highly restricted range, from southern Kafue National Park, southwestern Zambia along Zambesi valley to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

They are still rather noisy, though, and need plenty of care and attention. Keep reading to learn more about these birds, their history, and how to care for them. Species Overview Image Credit Wirestock Creators, Shutterstock Common Names Black-Cheeked Lovebird; Black-Masked Lovebird Scientific Name Agapornis nigrigenis Adult Size 5 to inches; 1 to ounces Life Expectancy 15 to 20 years Origin and History Black-Cheeked Lovebirds are native to a small area of southwestern Zambia. They weren’t known to Europeans until the early 1900s. However, after their discovery, the Black-Cheeked Lovebirds were often trapped and exported to Europe for the pet trade. Once populous in the wild, they are now considered vulnerable. Habitat size limitations reduced access to fresh water, and over-trapping for the pet trade have decimated the wild population. Trapping of these birds in the wild is currently banned. Those that are now sold as pets are bred in captivity. Temperament Image Credit JuliusH, Pixabay Black-Cheeked Lovebirds are known for their social and playful nature. As pets, they love to play and explore their surroundings. They will connect with their owners if they are the only bird in the home. If you have two Lovebirds, they are more likely to bond with each other than with you. They can become depressed and jealous if not given enough attention, so this is something to keep in mind. If you cannot spend much time with your bird, you’ll need to get them a mate. These birds love to be active, so they need plenty of exercise and toys. They are intelligent and enjoy a variety of entertaining games with their toys. You’ll want to give them plenty to do so they don’t get bored. Cuddly and loving pets Social Playful and entertaining Can be noisy Need plenty of attention Speech & Vocalizations Although they are members of the parrot family, the Black-Cheeked Lovebird typically doesn’t speak. They do have the ability to copy human sounds, but they usually communicate by making loud shrieking noises. They’ll also chatter to themselves and other birds. Their tendency to be quite loud doesn’t make them a good choice for apartment dwellers. Black-checked Lovebird Image Credit DickDaniels, Wikimedia Commons CC SA Unported Black-Cheeked Lovebird Colors and Markings The Black-Cheeked Lovebird has a bright-green body and tail. Their neck is olive green, transitioning to orange on the chest. The top of their head is brown and their cheeks are black. They have a red bill and grey feet. Their eyes are black, with a bright white ring around them. Both males and females look similar. Juvenile birds have duller colors until their first molt. Then they acquire the brighter appearance of their parents. Caring for the Black-Cheeked Lovebird Black-Cheeked Lovebirds require the same level of care as most other members of the parrot family. They need plenty of space to move around and a great deal of attention if they are to thrive. Here are specific tips for caring for your bird. Pairing You can pair Lovebirds, and they will likely get along just fine. However, they will also breed if you pair a male and female Lovebird. This species doesn’t have the difficulties of breeding in captivity that some other parrots have. If you aren’t prepared to raise a whole family, you’ll want to keep one Lovebird only. It’s also important to note that pairs of Lovebirds will bond closely with one another. They will typically ignore their human caregivers and only focus on the other bird. They also will become depressed if the other Lovebird passes away. That said, if you don’t have much time to spend with your bird, they’ll need an avian companion to keep them happy and socially fulfilled.

Grooming If you have two Lovebirds, they will groom each other. A single bird will groom themselves. You will need to give them a dish of clean water at least twice each week so they can take a bath — they love bathing! As for feather and nail clipping, both of these are best done by a qualified avian veterinarian. Cage Lovebirds are active little birds. They need a cage that is a minimum of 18”W x 18”D x 24”H. A bigger cage is also fine. The cage needs to have plenty of perching areas for your Black-Cheeked Lovebirds to sit and rest. You’ll need to clean the cage daily to prevent dangerous bacteria from collecting. Perches, toys, food and water dishes, and anything else in the cage should be a part of your cleaning routine. You should keep the cage in a room with a moderate temperature between 65- and 75-degrees Fahrenheit. Entertainment Black-Cheeked Lovebirds adore toys! They are also chewers, so make sure any toys that you give them cannot break and injure your bird. Wood, sisal, and leather toys are good options. They may also enjoy cardboard tubes, bells, and ladders that they can climb. You should change the toys in the cage frequently to prevent boredom. Common Health Problems As long as their environment is kept clean and they have enough attention, Lovebirds are typically healthy birds. However, there are a few conditions that they are prone to. These include Feather plucking This is typically the result of boredom; your bird may over-pick their feathers, resulting in feather loss and skin irritation. Chlamydiosis You should monitor your bird for nasal discharge, appetite loss, or fluffed feathers. Veterinary care is needed. Avian pox You may notice sores in their mouth or around their eyes and face. Veterinary care is required. Psittacine beak and feather disease If you see beak deformities, broken or discolored feathers, or a significant loss of feathers, you’ll need to take your Lovebird to the veterinarian right away. Diet and Nutrition Black-Cheeked Lovebirds need to eat a balanced diet. It should include bird pellets, fruits, and vegetables. The bird pellets should make up about 60-70% of their diet. Lovebirds like many different fruits and vegetables, including Apples Berries Oranges Green beans Peas Lettuce Carrots Celery You can also feed your Lovebirds occasional treats and other seeds. Exercise Black-Cheeked Lovebirds are active and require time outside of their cage every day for exercise. They are also known for being brave and curious, so make sure the space you provide for them is free from dangers. Ceiling fans, hot surfaces, and toxic plants are all potential hazards. Where to Adopt or Buy a Black-Cheeked Lovebird You should expect to pay between $90 to $150 for a Black-Cheeked Lovebird. The best place to buy one is from a reputable breeder who has experience breeding healthy birds. It is illegal to trap these birds in the wild, so make sure you are getting a captive-bred bird. You may also be able to find these birds in pet stores or specialty stores, but it will be more difficult to ask questions about the breeding and health of the bird at these places. Conclusion Black-Cheeked Lovebirds are good pets for people who know how to care for birds. They need attention and a clean environment to thrive. Keep in mind that they are noisy, so if you live in an apartment, this might not be the bird for you. However, if you are willing to tolerate a noisy housemate, have the time to care for them, and want an attentive companion, then you should consider a Black-Cheeked Lovebird.

ï»żThe black-cheeked lovebird Agapornis nigrigenis is a small parrot species of the lovebird genus. It is mainly green and has a brown head, red beak, and white eyerings. It is endemic to a relatively small range in southwest Zambia, where it is vulnerable to habitat loss. Appearance The black-cheeked lovebird is 14 cm in in length, with mostly green plumage, reddish-brown forehead and forecrown, brownish-black cheeks and throat, orange bib below the throat which fades to yellowish-green, white eye-rings and grey feet. Adult have bright red beaks, while juveniles of the species are similar but with a more orange bill. Vocalizations are loud, piercing shrieks, which sound like the calls of other lovebirds. Distribution Geography The black-cheeked lovebird inhabits deciduous woodland, where permanent supplies of surface water exist, as it needs daily access to water. In the dry season, these birds may congregate in large flocks of up to 800 or more. They are found in Zambia and may occur in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia. Biome Habits and Lifestyle Your browser does not support the audio element. Diet and Nutrition The black-cheeked lovebird feeds mainly at ground-level on annual grass seeds, but also on other vegetable matter and insect larvae, and on corn, sorghum, and millet. Population Conservation It is listed as a vulnerable species as its population is in decline due to continuous habitat loss. This is due to gradual desiccation of water bodies, causing drought, farming practices, hunting and trapping, fishing, logging and diseases. There are currently only between 2,500 and 9,999 mature individuals. However, they occur in nature reserves and there is an action plan in place to help them. Domestication The black-cheeked lovebird is relatively easy to breed in aviculture, but there was little interest in breeding them during the first half of the twentieth century at a time when imports were numerous. Now they are uncommon in aviculture and uncommon as pets. References More Fascinating Animals to Learn About

Outside of Zambia, it is found along the Zambezi River in northern Zimbabwe, at the very northernmost tip of Botswana, and at the eastern tip of the Caprivi Strip in Namibia. The total number of these lovebirdscurrently in existence is unknown, though it has been estimated that there are less than 10,000 in the bird prefers to inhabit medium-altitude forests dominated by deciduous shedding trees. The total habitat range is about 2,300 square miles 5,960 square kilometers.History and conservation measuresIn the twentieth century, black-cheeked lovebirds have been trapped and sold around the world as caged pets. During a four-week period in 1929, as many as 16,000 of the birds were captured. The species has never recovered from this legal protection in Zambia, this lovebird is still trapped illegally. It remains a common cage bird. Another threat to the black-cheeked lovebird is the draining of water sources in its habitat to supply agricultural needs. The destruction of its habitat to create farmland also remains a potential lovebirds have become better established in captivity. Although the captive-bred population is still relatively small, it has grown steadily over the last twenty years.
