Do you have a lorikeet or are thinking of getting one? Did you enjoy the video? Here is my playlist of my other birds spotlight videos Birds as Pets Species Spotlight: th-cam.com/play/PL6uTBIckTWD45cnK7Sm063Kt9VFQ2kV05.html
I adore your interesting parrot❤
I want to buy one after I fully understand care.
Question: instead of puttin plastic on inside can’t you just put some marine fabric on the inside?
If I see one up for you will you test it?
I will see one for you but need cage dimensions
Hi I had a few questions
I am looking to buy a Goldie lorikeet. Suggestions? I am in US but can go to Canada
Lol when I got my Lori , I was looking for fish food , well I came home with a rainbow Lori, cage and all didn’t know anything about them , she is now 18 years old and I love her very much 😁🌈🌈🌈🌈
Dawww best to not know anything before hahaha
So much work but I love 💕 mine too
Here in Sydney,Australia they wild ones come to my window wanting some apple snacks I sometimes give them some and they become very tame but are wild to cute
You suggest not to have a lorikeet as a first bird but i have done so and don't regret it at all. If i had had an easier bird before my rainbow lorikeet i probably wouldn't have kept him. I think that sometimes starting with the hardest task makes less hard tasks really easy. I literally "jumped in feet first at the deep end" as i had never had anything to do with any bird before my darling Simon. You do have very good general advice and it was a pleasure to listen to you.
I didn’t know that there was 50 types of Lori species. Awesome video and info 👍 I enjoyed it
Oh goodness theyre cute and smaller than i thought!! 💖
This video was very interesting! I was looking fwd of buying a lorikeet but not anymore cause of the poop mess😪😪😪 thanks for the info!! :D
I currently have a male Black Cap Lory. I have had him for 20 years now. I have had several lories since 1991.
Dazzle's such a cutie!
Ooooh that is a beautiful bird, so colorful....🌹❤️🌹❤️ oooh thy are messy, so much cleaning. And eating a sweet liquid thy eat and not seeds, I never new this. As I have see these birds. But didn’t know there names are. Tks for the advise. He is beautiful but one really needs lots of time to take care of the,....🌹❤️🌹❤️
By far one of the best Lories & Lorikeets care video!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video 😊
We have got Lorikeets too. In my channel you can see, how they live at our home........😉
5th comment and I want to say a thousand times
AWWWWW.....
I didn't know that they are sooo cute ,you showed me ,thanks
Love you so much ,keep up the good work
Yay that's true ,yes u are absolutely true
I got an eight month old rainbow lorikeet a few months ago. He's so much fun. He talks and whistles and loves being on my shoulder when I'm with my horses. He has no fear of anything
You are so lucky to have a young one to train - they are so naturally tame ❤
@@karenpeatey6226 yes they're such fabulous fun birds
God Bless you and your pets!
Very interesting! The parrot shop near me has a few rainbow and ornate lorikeets, they are often wrestling with each other.
They must be cute! They sure do like to wrestle, lol
Extraordinary information about Larry keet
Consider leaving the dropping tray wet, and lining with a single layer paper towel. Easy to clean the next day .
wow, thats a lot of work
I just found your channel and I’m now a subscriber! I live in PEI and I have a Green Naped Rainbow Lorikeet! I visited Australia in 2012 and fell in love with them! Upon returning to Canada I purchased one from a lady in Ontario, and Dani still lives with me! I love his spunk!
Hi! Welcome to my channel. Lorikeets are so much fun and colorful. Hope you enjoy my videos 😊
I recently got two cockatiels and your info on them really helped, I enjoy your vids a lot
You are a font of knowledge on so many birds. So helpful. So much important details. How many bird books have you read ? What year did you start reading ?
I’d like to hear your biography on how you got started with your parrot interest. You must spend 5 hours a day on your birds. Maybe more! And you have 44 pets ! Lorikeets seem too juicy for me. I’m a cockatoo girl!
Awesome information! I had no idea how different Lorikeets are from other birds. Mainly liquid diets, spraying liquid poo! So much to these little guys. They are beautiful though!! Dazzle is absolutely precious :) in a way, his little beak, face, and colors resemble some hummingbirds. Is there some sort of distant connection between the two?
Thank you. I don't believe they are related but you knew know 😊
@@Loveofpets you're welcome 💖 i was just thinking because of their particular look and their diets...i know it's silly to suggest...but like you said, you never know 😂👍
@XmenMagnetoAcolytesoh, i know that, thank you😊 i just thought some similarities were very interesting 😊 thanks again
Oh well thank you for the info! I have red lorikeet and i want to tame them! They are a couple i saw kissibg when i was kissing tho, hehe! And yours is very cute and beautiful :>
You always do such a lovely job in your videos. Thank you! Dazzle is beautiful.
I got a lorikeet as a surprise he was being given away he has a green body and a yellowish head he was an aviary bird but now I’m going to tame him thx for the advice
Realised he was the scale Lori
Dances for the mango he's funny.
Loved this video! So clarifying and very useful. Thank you for sharing this knowledge!
Your welcome, glad you enjoyed it.
Great video! I love my Rainbow, he's a real character. I called him Gucci, 'cause he's fancy! He makes me laugh so much, that he now mimics my laugh. That's him in my avatar, on his favourite perch.✌🇦🇺
Gucci is adorable 😍
@@Loveofpets He's won my heart.
lindos
so informative like always, thanks Dona now I know that loris are not for me
My dad used to use cloth diapers. He would lay a couple down on top of the grate and wash then in hot water after he felt they were soiled enough. He would put them in nesting boxes too. Seems like you go through alot of paper towels and that looks like it gets expensive.
All ur birddies are soooooo cuite !!!
Any tips for treating mites ? The bird is by itself so won’t pick up mites off others. I don’t like the idea of Stirling sprays
Great idea covering the bottom of the cage like that
PS I found a all natural wood hollow bed that are found in the small animal section (for Guinea pig)
High Pressure and steamerS are quicker 4 cleaning and more hygienic (no harsh cleaning agents needed )
Steamers are great for cleaning especially the lorikeet cages.
For mites there are products that can be used to spray the cage and/or birds but in general keeping the cage clean works well. Give lots of bathing opportunities for the bird. Remove perches as red mites hide in the ends of the perch where it connects on the cage and crevices. Check toys, wash cage often.
a child with wings.
For now, what brand of nectar do you give lorikeets ?
And do you also use the lory diet?,
For example a kind of psittacus lory diet?
Feeding Lorikeets water with tannins apparently helps a lot with avoiding iron storage disease the same as with toucans. Perhaps tea in distilled water or Catappa leaves.
Thanks for the tip
Thank you darl nice video.Very cute bird :)
I’m getting a semi tame one in a couple of days! So excited! ❤
That is awesome!
@@Loveofpetshe is now / today cuddling me!! He was scared at first squeaking and when I caught him as the person who had him clipped his wings .. left the cage door open and he hopped out .. I picked him up and put him to my chest and he almost fell asleep!! I cannot get over how cuddly they’re!
@ishtarbabylon4869 I got mine at 11 months, so they were a bit older, but definitely not cuddly after 2 months 😅 handle them well but love to bite and copy too many words
I got a lutino scaley breasted lorikeet :)
Awesome 😁
Another great video! Appreciate all the time and effort you put into your videos and your birds. Keep it up 😊
Thank you 🥰
These species spotlights are great. Could you do one on the kakariki? I want to get one but not finding much info on them as pets, mostly they seem to be kept in aviaries. My main question is, is it worth the extra money to get a hand reared kakariki or do they tame easy?
Hi! I used to have a kakariki and he was the best bird. He was hand raised. I don't have a kakariki now so can't do a species spotlight unfortunately. I highly recommend a hand fed and raised kakariki
@@Loveofpets oh I'm sorry I thought you had a couple, you have so many birds it's hard to keep track lol. Thank you for the advice though!
It's okay, I do have so many birds. I love Kakarikis, one day I hope I can own another one.
my rainbow loriket is getting bold on its head...is this ok ?
What do you use for your dry mix? And where do you get your plastic from?
Hi! I use the Quicko Lory Food.
@@Loveofpets but its water soluble... are you sure that's safe to use a wet nectar as a dry nectar?
Yes it's perfectly fine. I have giving it dry for many years.
Hello this is best video regarding lorikeet, am going to get one but is it fine to give it fruites everyday or whats its daily healthy diet ??
Hi, yes it's best to give fruits everyday. My Lorikeet gets fruit daily.
My Lorikeet isn't messy, but he sure is loud, do you know any ways to calm your Lorikeet down?
Hi, they are very active birds and rarely settle. I fund with a lot of out of the cage enrichment they settle down some. Lots of bathing, toys, interaction and flying.
Wow! The fastest poo in the west! 😳
Great video i learned quite a bit about lorys.i seen a one at the pet shop today and i asked to hold it and it just loved me it didn’t want anyone else but me to hold it. sadly he was already sold. I really want one but I’m not sure were to get one.i also live in canada i was wondering if you know any good places to look? Or is there a specific time they are more popular? i was looking to get a red Lory btw dazzle is so beautiful
Hi! Thank you. Do you have a Big Al's near you? They occasionally have lories. Search for breeders in your area. See if there are any bird clubs near you as usually they list there breeders on the website or try a bird rescue.
I don't know any lory breeders.
Love of Pets thank you for your time I really appreciate it. lol i do have a big als thats were i found out about lorys ill keep going back hopefully they will get more in. Would you recommend going to a bird club rather then big als?
Check the bird clubs website to see if there are lory breeders. There may not be any lory breeders at the club. I recommend joining a bird club to learn more about birds and usually you can bring your bird to get him more socialized. You can't buy one from the club as they don't sell birds at the club but breeders may attend.
You can let big Al's know that you are interested in a lory and they can put your name on a waiting list. Also I think if they have a lory in another store they can bring the lory to your store for you. I would look for breeders first as usually it's best that get directly from a breeder to avoid the one step of the bird going to the pet store. Birds are cheaper from a breeder then a pet store.
Hey just wondering can you easily tame two budgies which are young? Sorry it's not pertinent to the video
Yes u just have to spend time with them and have to wait
Yes you can train two budgies but it's best to try and work with one at a time.
@@Loveofpets thanks
Hello, I am currently in Okinawa and I saw a really tame and friendly Yellow bibbed Lory in the prt store. I would like to purchase but I’m not sure if would need some type of permit when I’m ready to go back to the US. Please help!
Hi, I am not experienced with bringing birds to other countries. An avian vet would know as I know that they need to be vet checked for diseases before travelling.
Hi my lineolated pair have just hatched their first egg over a week ago, but the other three haven't hatched and don't look like they are fertile due to them being very clear see through when up to the light, the mum seems to still sit on them which hasn't been a problem but now she seems to neglect the hatched chick, if I remove the eggs we she focus her attention on the one chick or will she reject it more
Hi, shine a flashlight on the eggs to see if fertile. You can remove the infertile eggs and she may feed the baby. Keep an eye on the baby to make sure it's fed otherwise you will have to feed the baby
Some one help i wanna but a lorikeet but idk where from
Sister ,can black cap lori male and ornate female can mate?
Hi, they can sure try but I am not experienced with breeding the 2 together and it's not ethical to let them breed. Some species of birds will breed with other birds in the same genus but the eggs won't be fertile or if the eggs hatch the baby's are infertile
Would a glass cage be good for a lorikeet?
As long as the cage had ventilation and places to hang toys and perches. I have heard of a plexiglass cage for lorikeets. They certainly would contain the mess and need more frequent cleaning
@@Loveofpets Thank you for the reply! Yes, the cage I'm looking at has a barred top for ventilation and for hanging toys.
Question. Since they perch can’t you just put activated carbon and sand in the bottom?
I don't recommend using that in the bottom of the cage. They do go on the floor of the cage.
They may injest or breath it in. it and it's messy and hard to clean and grow mold. There cage needs daily cleaning.
@@Loveofpets what about peat moss?
I redesigned the cage. It should change twice a day, including side walls in less than a minute. But I need recyclable substrate.
Hi thank for nice information
I went in blackpool and i saw rainbow lori keet and i have a toy
Lories and lorikeets are much higher maintenance than the other types of parrots due to their watery poop. I see you protect his cage and floor well with plastics. What about when he comes out to play with the other birds? Do you time his eating and pooping then let him out?
He just poops where ever, lol. He usually poops while above the cages and there is plastic on top of the cages and easy to wipe off.
How much price of a goldies lorikeet
I have the chattering lorry one and how do you know if is it a girl/boy?¿?¿?
A dna test is best since males and females look a like
@@Loveofpets thx so much
Hi, I'm from Australia,Qld the Lorikeets and Lorys,are everywhere here and get very noisy.
You are lucky to see them in the wild 💓
I have another clown of the bird world...an 11 week old harlequin macaw also decried as a clown
My cinnamon lori makes a game of shooting poop on your foot if he’s in the mood and your in the right place, and damn, he’s a good shot!, love him to bits he’s 6 yrs old.
Which vegetables can I feed them,? Can I give them half boiled to avoid pesticides effect when they eat?
It's best to feed fresh vegetables. Wash them and dry them off, no need to cook them. There is a huge list of vegetables that you can feed. Check on Google which are safe and not safe as I can't type it all here
Can you please give me the list of the foods higher in iron and I want to make chop for my lorikeet but I don’t know what greens are higher in iron because I’ve researched and it comes up with parakeet foods.
Hi, some foods that are higher in iron than others are Spinach, Kale and Banana. Search on Google Fruits and Vegetables that are high in Iron and you will get a list
@@Loveofpets thanks
Came here to learn more about lorrys. Red birb channel is so funny. Someone said she's a lorry. Good videos! You earned a sub.
Welcome to my channel 😀
i just leave a large towel on the cage and turn the lights on.
Dazzle is a very nice bird, but I know I could never own a Lorikeet due to them being so messy and requiring extensive clean-up.
How is Moonlight doing since the bout with bumblefoot?
Dazzle is very messy and it's a lot of work caring for a lorikeet for sure. Moonlight is doing okay. I treated his foot for six week, it got smaller and the plug in the middle is gone. He is finally back with the flock. I will keep and eye on his foot and treat when needed.
Glad to hear Moonlight is doing okay. You put a lot of time into his treatment; he could not have a better home. I will never use plastic perches in the cage; only using wood and tree branches and will use the wrap you recommended anytime the birds have a foot problem.
I did get 2 of the Anini (18 x 18 x 23) cages for my 4 budgies through the link you provided; the birds are doing great in their new cages. Hope you collected your commission; each cage was $113.95. @@Loveofpets
Glad you like the cages, I am sure I got the commission, thank you for buying the cages through my link, I appreciate it 🤗
Do u have Zebra Finches?
I don't have any zebra finches, I used to a while ago.
@@Loveofpets oh that's cool my 2 new ones have 5 eggs now!
Congratulations on the eggs! My finches had a clutch and the babies were so cute but it was hard to find them homes.
@@Loveofpets awww I know I can't wait till they hatch I named the boy bird Elvis and the girl bird Priscilla
What happened to the other lorakeet you own with the name Kiwi?
He passed away sadly.
@@Loveofpets oh... I feel sorry for that. This Lorikeets are ones of the prettiest parrots for me. They look so beautiful.
Did you own birds of a species in the past from which you don't own birds anymore today?
Which species of birds do you dream to belong to your flock in the future?
Which 3 species you own or did own are the less messiest?
Sorry for the much questions.
Monet is going to give me a pet baby rainbow lorikeet❤💙💛💚🐦
Lorikeet vs cockatiel- which is messier and which is noisier
Lorikeet are much more messier. They are both noisy but lorikeets have a higher pitched sound
NICE MADAM, BUT I LOVE EVERYTIPE LORIKEET , PLZ GIVE ME BIRDS ONE MALE & FEMALE .
Is it possible to cross-breeding between Red-collared and Rainbow lorikeet? are they in the same species?
our rainbow lorikeet has developed a lump around his crop.....bout size of match head.......hes grumpy and cant eat
Sorry about your Lorikeet. Hopefully your Avian vet can help.
I was wondering, if i watch the ads on your videos does utube or the commercials owner pay you anything for number of watched ads?
Not to be nosey, i just want to know that you and your pets are getting some $ for all the wonderful videos you post with real information.
Not everyone can afford to sponsor or donate but we all can watch the ads and let you get paid!
Love your vids! Keep up the wonderful work!
I believe that's how it works. The longer the ads are watched the more AdSense I receive. It's not much but it helps.
Thank you for watching the ads.
@@Loveofpets now that i understand how it works i will be sure to let them play out!
Thanks again for all you do!

I found a scaly breasted lorikeet a month ago, a “runner”, couldn’t fly… I rescued him, looked after him and he recovered after a few weeks. I call him Zelensky😂 Outside my house there are thousands of them, all shapes and sizes. Hi from Barrington coast 🏖🇦🇺
Oh wow!
I have a rainbow and musk lorikeet
It's Black-Capped Lori, not Lorikeet and mine loves certain apples, pears and bananas but I try not to feed him too much sugar. I've had Kimo Sabi for over12 yrs and got him when he was 6 months old. Kimo doesn't drink water but always has water. He just uses it for a bath.
I use dog pee pads for pee guards and on the floor. I take Kimo's cage to the car wash and use the high-pressure water to clean his cage. It's the fastest and easiest way to clean his cage and toys.
GRAPES AND STRAWBERRIES WILL KILL YOUR LORI!!!
Feeding wild birds is more enjoyable.
Be careful apple are high in IRON
Maybe you can try to train dazzle to poop into a little bucket with a plastic in it. Have you try that?
I haven't tried it. He poops so much and doesn't like to sit on my finger to long to train him.
Thank you. cleaning out my rainbow lorkieet is a NIGHTMARE! I have some vids of River if you would like to see them.
Loriculus galgulus, loriculus pussilus..........
not more of a pollen eating bird, strictly a pollem eating bird
I got a musklorikeet

Caiques are the clowns of the bird world
Shame on you. These Birds are no pets!!!
Had my semi tame scaly and within a week he is cuddling me! He squaks when I get him out then like a big baby nuzzled me today!! Unbelievable!!
Awh, sounds like a sweety.
