Do lovebird eat meat?
An interesting question. They do require protein, as do many animals, including herbivores. Protein is often (and we think most breeders will tell you that they prefer it) supplied in other ways, such as through the provision of boiled eggs and a variety of beans (pinto, kidney, black-eyed). Raw meat or cooked meat is not something we have ever provided, although lovebirds will occassionaly cannibalize young birds (chicks and juveniles) in specific instances, as will many other species.
