Hobby Breeder of Agapornis Parrots: Discover the Lovebird Varieties

Welcome to our hobby Agapornis aviary, better known as lovebirds, one of the most affectionate and best-loved parrot species in the world. Thanks to their liveliness, intelligence and bright colors, Agapornis are the ideal choice for anyone looking for a cheerful, sweet life companion. In our aviary, we devote ourselves with passion to breeding and selecting several varieties of these parrots, giving them a family environment where their sociable nature can develop at its best.

What Are Agapornis Parrots?

Agapornis, native to Africa, are small parrots with a joyful, affectionate temperament, known for the strong bond they form with their partner or with their owners. Their common name, "lovebirds", comes from their habit of living in pairs and the deep attachment they show. Although they are small parrots, measuring about 13-17 cm, their hearts are big, and they love spending time interacting and playing.

The Varieties of Agapornis

There are several species and mutations of Agapornis, each with unique physical and behavioral traits. In our aviary, we focus on some of the best-loved varieties, breeding them with care to ensure healthy, colorful, well-socialized parrots.
