Helpful Tips

·        Be VERY NICE to your WIFE (especially if she feeds and handraises for you!)

·        Do not give any birds or animals chocolate or avocado (give chocolate to wife instead).

·        Your bird needs vitamins and calcium regularly.

·        Most birds enjoy a variety of fruit and vegetables.

·        Lorikeets love native flowers such as Bottle Brush and Grevillias.

·        Talk to your Lorikeets often if you would like them to talk back to you!

·        Female Lorikeets talk just as much as Male Lorikeets do (imagine that!)

·        Lots of clean drinking water must always be available … Lorikeets love to bath in their water bowls.

·        We feed our lorikeets Lori Dry as well as the above

·        Wet mix is not essential for Lorikeets, but if you do provide this to your lorikeets, it is a good idea to take the bowl out after a couple of hours as bacteria breeds quickly especially in the warmer weather.

·        Rainbow Lorikeets can breed all year round, they normally lay 1-2 eggs or sometimes 3 in a clutch.

·        Rainbow Lorikeet eggs are usually incubated for approximately 24 days.

·        Rainbow Lorikeets can be kept in a colony environment, but breed well as pairs, in individual aviaries.

·        Rainbow Lorikeets breed from about 12 months of age.

·        Rainbows, Red Collars and Scaleys need to be either surgically sexed or DNA sexed to determine their sex.
