Are lovebirds good pets?
user
My understanding is that they’re pretty high maintenance pets.
assistant
How so?
user
They’re extremely social creatures and they need quite a lot of companionship.  They may not be the best companion if you’re busy a lot and it’s important for you to have an undisturbed space.  If you’re busy a lot and they’re very attached to you, they may need to be taken to a bird care center regularly for care.
assistant
So do I need to get more than one?
user
In general if you’re away from home a lot, I think a bird might be a good choice.  But if you’re around a lot and you’re actively home more than they are, I think they might be a little lonely.
assistant
Okay, that's good to know.

If you do get two birds, make sure they have similar personalities and that they can get along with each other.
