it's actually pretty much the same measurement. CC's are used for injections while mls are for liquid measurements. I can't see the picture well enough, or the scale, but just feed the lovebirds until the crop is full and not tight. If you put too much in the crop, you can fill it so they can't draw a breath and they can aspirate. Go to a pharmacy and ask for a 10ml syringe, and that will give you reference for how much your birds are eating.
