Can you please tell me what are good food brands that offers full nutrition and health benefits for lovebirds? Right now I'm feeding him his favourite fruits and vegetables + seeds. I'd like to improve his diet more since he's an senior. What toys would you recommend for him?

Harrison's Bird Diet is the best food out there. It is pelleted so there can be some resistance from your bird transitioning to the new diet if he has been on a seed diet, but it is nutritionally complete and very high quality. Toys I find that lovebirds like have been cotton rope toys that they can preen and groom like the feathers of another bird.
