As far as I know lovebirds are not known to be really good talkers. Birds in pairs also seem to talk less than single birds.

As a general rule, if you have only one bird and have it from a young age you're more likely to get it to talk. If you have a pair it's way less likely because it has the other bird to keep it company and is less likely to be after your attention.
