Are these birds both handfed? If so, I was wondering how you introduced them to each other. I have a handfed female and a handfed male, but the female attacks him whenever I put them together.

They aren't handfed or handraised. I simply tamed them to a certain level.
To introduce them it helps a lot if either both are really young, or none of them is too much younger than the other.
Also, I recommend moving a new pair to a cage which is foreign for both of them for a 1-2 weeks. If one gets used to being alone in its own cage, it will protect it from intruders.

I heard that those type of cages are bad for the birds but it takes a lonh time to take affect.

@darkiller177 Thanks for letting me know. Can I ask what you mean on "those type"? The cage was custom built, and this type of grid is commonly used for aviaries here.

Hi i was just wondering about the diet of lovebirds. do they need special lovebird food or can they just eat budgie food, e.t.c.? also, what human food do they need? thanks

@animallovercharlie They eat more fruits and vegetables, than budgies, and their diet may contain sunflower seeds as well. At most pet stores you can find special food for lovebirds. If by any chance they don't have it, cockatiel food should be fine, but offer them apples, carrots and sprouts regularly.
