I couldn't even keep them safe as a single species colony. It was practically a Game of Thrones situation between the "alpha" pair and whichever pair wanted to take that place.
Another factor I’ve noticed is keeping lovebirds with a similar colour scheme, and at least three or four pairs.
For example, I keep Rosy-Faced lovebirds that have some of the markings of Fischer’s lovebirds. They all get along well.
However, I was given three pastel-blue lovebirds that were bullied severely, even after being introduced properly etc.
I had to build them their own, slightly smaller, aviary.
This is a really interesting observation, and I'll keep in mind if I ever get back into lovebirds.
