The flock is already that big.
The only way I can slow the population growth is to collect and discard the eggs daily.

Oh, and to answer your question ... yes ... I love my flock. Apparently they love me too. A few of them will fly over to be close to me while I sit drinking my coffee or briefly stand near the cage. They sing to me or just perch quietly.
