Lory/Lorikeet Owners?

[Harrybasford]

Hello,
I was wondering where Lory should post on this forum?
In "Other"?

Many thanks,

Harry

I post my videos and updates in other but if you have questions and such you can use the question and answer or behavior forums, they seem to have more traffic. welcome! Good to see another lory owner.

Thanks alot for your reply. I dont own a Lory yet, waiting on my pet shop to find me a Dusky

 

[Sulphiria]

Oh, i had to see pics. Those are beautiful...wow!

 

[Harrybasford]

Yeah they are beautiful, more common I think than your Green Naped though

Just got me looking in the different types of Lori's, can't believe how many they are!

They are definitely the most vibrant family of birds! Just gorgeous!

Some of them don't considered to be good pet birds though... their food attracts ants big time!!! We've been treating inside and outside for ants as they're super bad this year. So we finally went to get two size Tupperware where the small one sits inside the big one, cage feet sits in the smaller dish while the big dish gets filled with water and vinegar. Viola no more ants....hang shower curtains around their cage or hook towels around the cage, they make one heck of a mess!!!! Lay towels infront of their cage. Plastic toys be the best!!!

I didn't even think of the ants! I imagine a little nectar spill could cause a full infestation!

 

[Sulphiria]

I must have gotten lucky cause mine doesnt make much of a mess and we dont have any ants. :54:
