  • Visual sexing is not reliable and surgical or DNA sexing is necessary

  • I personally would not let a bird feed from my mouth, only because you run the risk of being bitten! I dont know how long it takes them to start talking, The more they hear something, the more chance you have of them copying it, for example when I call my dog. So just stick to one sentence, and repeat it. Eric does not like to return to his enclosure, only when he has fresh flowers to eat. Like all other animals, they can be moody, so pick your time to try new things. Hope that helps.

  • Do Rainbow Lorikeets always make that beautiful sound? It's a very pretty sound. And how loud are they?

  • thats just his chatter he doesnt realy get any louder than this

    If only it had sound.

  • too cute! Im no expert but do have a lot of Lorikeet friends and I can usually tell males from females. The males I know have a more pronounced forehead and it's slightly more bulbous than on a female. it's not scientific but seems to work for me. It's especially noticeable when they come in a group and you can see the birds that are "in pairs". fantastic birds!

  • I have a green nape lory named Nikki and I have the feeling she is a he! She is 2yrs. old and is humping everything! I have had her for a year now and she has brought a lot of happiness to my life! I adore my lory!

  • Not correct, I breed these birds, the colour of the beak is from age and not sex - sorry. the pelvis is the only true way to tell the sex and even this is not infallible. The birds sexual behaviour will generally tell you what sex it is :)

  • Great video, they are just the best birds ever. And sultanas are a popular treat, especially when they have been soaked.

  • what can u give raibow lorikeets as treats

  • The male (rb) lorikeet is has a realy dark beak. But witch the remale (rb) lorikeet has a much lighter beek.

    That looks like an male to me.

  • THIS IS GREAT!!!!!
