Can you please tell me what are good food brands that offers full nutrition and health benefits for lovebirds? Right now I'm feeding him his favourite fruits and vegetables + seeds. I'd like to improve his diet more since he's an senior. What toys wo
Harrison's Bird Diet is the best food out there. It is pelleted so there can be some resistance from your bird transitioning to the new diet if he has been on a seed diet, but it is nutritionally complete and very high quality. Toys I find that lovebirds like have been cotton rope toys that they can preen and groom like the feathers of another bird.

I have a 22 year old Timneh African Grey parrot. I have used Harrison's pellets medium size in the past. It has been discontinued. My parrot won't eat the fine size and drops the large size into water. I need suggestions of what else to use.
Here are a few products that may be similar for you to try out for James (cute name!) [Lafeber's Nutri-Berries](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/lafebers-nutri-berries-parrot-food): while not entirely pelleted, they are a nice mix of nutrients that are fun to eat and can be broken down to smaller sizes. [ZuPreem Avian Maintenance Natural](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/zupreem-avianmaintenance-natural-bird-diet-for-parrots-and-conures): a good pelleted food that may be of a similar size to what you were feeding prior. They also offer[ ZuPreem Classic](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/zupreem-classic-avianmaintenance-natural-bird-diet-for-large-parrots) which is a slightly larger size of the formulation, you may want to try out both to see if James prefers one to the other.

My love bird is laying eggs the number crossed 15 right now will it continue and how many days it may take to hatch
Typical clutch size for lovebirds is 4 to 6 eggs. The hen will lay one egg every 48 hours until the full clutch is laid. The incubation period is 21 to 24 days. If you don't have a male lovebird, the eggs will be infertile. Remove them after 3-4 weeks or when the hen abandons the nest. Feed a fortified diet with extra calcium which can be depleted from egg laying.

My lovebird has become a biter since she laid her first clutch of four eggs. I let her sit on them for two weeks before removing them and handled her only a little bit because she was protective of her eggs. She is Aggressively biting me now wheneve
If the eggs are infertile, allow her to sit on them until she loses interest. This could take 3-4 weeks. Taking them out any sooner may cause her to lay more. Most birds are naturally protective of their nests and eggs. Limit her exposure to sunlight. Use a cage cover if necessary. You can make the room her cage is in a few degrees cooler if possible also. Do not rub her beak, back or around her tail for a few weeks. This can mimic mating behavior. When she bites, stop interaction immediately and wait until she settles down. Prise and reward good behavior.

You can over supplement calcium so be careful. Use a supplement made for birds and follow the instructions on the bottle. ( https://www.arcatapet.com/item.cfm?cat=24044 ) Normal clutch size is 4-6 eggs.
