Can't say i've met many quiet quiet birds, none the less, I don't think their overly plentiful either. .. Least not lovebirds :lol... How old is this lovebird? .. I have, on the other hand, noticed some juveniles start off on the quiet note. ...But, i've never really spent too much time handling them beyond a day or two. ... If young (and healthy), it may be, that as this lovie matures, he/she will become a bit more inclined to communicate. ... Thats about all I can come up with. .. Maybe someone with more experience can better answer your question.
For DNA sexing, have you checked out Avianbiotech's services? ..... Glad to hear your following through on the vet exam! ...........:)

Other than not chirping, is she active? Does she have toys that she plays with? Do you have any pictures of her that you can share with us?
