Fischer's Versus Masked

[Arabianhorselover]

For those of you who have these types of Lovebirds, which do you consider to be louder? Which do you think are better pets?

Thank you.

I have not had Fischers before. But I can say that masked lovies are more quiet and skittish the peachfaced. My masked lovies were very quiet birds.

Last month I had many breeders visit me, they all said how loud my masked were compared to their peachfaced. I currently have peachfaced too, i'm looking after them for someone. I can wholeheartedly say they are WAY quieter than my masked.

It's also worth noting, different birds have different pitches and tones depending on their location. Some masked could be higher, longer pitched than masked in another location for example. There was an article about this, the wild birds are the same to, a species in one territory may sound very different to the same species in a different territory. Interesting reading it was for sure.
