Lovebird is the common name for the genus Agapornis, a small group of parrots in the Old World parrot family Psittaculidae.  Of the nine species in the genus, eight are native to the African continent, with the gray-headed lovebird being native to Madagasca.The kingdom of the African love birds AnimaliaPhylum.Depending on the species of lovebird, the female will carry nesting material into the nest in various ways. The peach-faced lovebird tucks nesting material in the feathers of its rump, [8] while the masked lovebird carries nesting material back in its beak. Once the lovebirds start constructing their nest, mating will follow. During this time, the lovebirds will mate repeatedly. Eggs follow 3–5 days later. The female will spend hours inside her nesting box before eggs are laid. Once the first egg is laid, a new egg will follow every other day until the clutch is complete, typically at four to six eggs. Even without a nest or a male, lovebirds sometimes produce eggs.
