A gift from my wife :p

I was trying to get a close up but didn't succeed because they are to shy as soon as I enter the aviary they ran into the nest box

I know you know better than me what they are :D

I sure do, a beautiful pair of fischer's lovebirds, quite possibly lutinos if their eyes are red! :love: Congratulations on your latest arrivals! :party:
Since they are new, it would be best to let them settle in and also get more acquainted with the species before adding the nest box into the cage. It's also not recommended to breed from two Inos or dark eyed clears. I have one of the latter and on my research found out these pairings aren't suitable and pastel/inos can also be troublesome when breeding with either full Inos or other pastels or dark eyed clears/Ino.
There is a much steeper learning curve when it comes lovebird keeping/breeding when compared to budgies.

Congratulations on your eggs!! :party: You are in for quite the exciting adventure!
Once the first chick hatches, you will get to see how different they are from budgie chicks.
From the moment they hatch, we are able to tell right from the start if they are green series or blue series.
Green series have orange downy feathers and blue series will have white.
Judging by the parents' colours, most likely you will have some cute orangey babies. :)
