Lori & Lorikeet
Playful, intelligent and brilliantly coloured — lorikeets are among the most rewarding birds you can keep. Explore the species we stock and learn what makes each one special.
Lorikeets are playful and energetic birds which often form strong bonds with their owners. Due to their high intelligence, they can be easily trained — making them a perfect pet for both singles and families. Native to tropical areas, they feed on nectar and fruits rather than seed, which means they require a simple but special diet. Our staff can provide all the dietary requirements and advice you need.
Important: lorikeets eat nectar, not seed
Unlike most parrots, lorikeets require a specialist liquid or powder nectar diet supplemented with fresh fruit and edible blossoms. Feeding seed can cause serious health problems. Ask our team in store for the right formula and feeding advice.
