コハナインコ

The Red-headed Lovebird, <em>Agapornis pullarius</em>, is a member of the family Psittaculidae and inhabits forest environments across its native range in equatorial Africa. This species nests in tree cavities, with an incubation period of approximately 22 days and a fledging period of around 42 days. Clutch sizes range from 3 to 7 eggs. Unlike most lovebirds, the Red-headed Lovebird sometimes excavates nest chambers within arboreal termite mounds rather than using pre-existing tree cavities, a behavior thought to provide temperature regulation benefits. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature, though the common name refers to the red or orange-red head coloration of males, with females showing paler orange-yellow coloration, making this species sexually dimorphic. Its conservation status is Least Concern. The Red-headed Lovebird is less commonly kept in captivity than other Agapornis species due to breeding challenges. It feeds on seeds, grains, and plant material. Dietary specifics and vocalizations are not detailed in the available literature.
