Ok,don't know where to put this question so here we go;
Can someone who knows lots about lovies explain to me why my lovie is so small in size...I know,sounds funny :) but I really want to know.
Today is the third time I went to a petshop to look at the birds,lovies to be exact.I see they've got new additions to those I already saw weeks and week ago.They have new black masked ones JUST LIKE MINE and some bluemasked that I saw last week but now they look bigger.Ok they do have some other ones too(peachfaced,lutinos etc) but let's stay with BLACKMASKED LOVIES like my Cookie. As you all know,I have no clue how old is my lovie..according to pics almost everyone said she(or he) may be over 6 mos...Well these lovies there(all same as mine) are that age(6 Mos) but all of them are bigger than mine.ALL!!! My lovie is size of a regular little parokeet just with shorter tail,and all the other ones are at least half size bigger,in lenght and in width! So even the one I saw last week and it was Cookie's size,is bigger now...So what's wrong with Cookie????????Do they vary in size..is it like rare thing(being smaller) and Cookie is the one? What would you say the reason may be.Also someone said that males are little smaller-does it mean all of those at the store are females???????? I mean Cookie is really small :)
