Hi Diana,
Unfortunatley Lovebirds are loud birds, doesn't really
matter what you do for them especially if they are in their
cage. If they are more quiet while out of their cage then I
would say let them stay out all day while you are home then
put them back when they go to bed. The only way I seem to
keep mine quiet at night is by using a cover over their cage
at bedtime. Mine are soooo loud while in their cage because
they don't want to be in there! So they will scream until I
let them out. Which my home is birdproof so its ok if they
are out. Sometimes I have to put them in a timeout and move
them into a a separate room then they quiet up. Hopefully
others here will have more advise for you, I just wanted you
to know that lovebirds are not quiet birds. They are amusing
and funny, the funniest birds I've ever owned so this makes
up for their loudness!
