I notice they have flowers I suppose they like the nectar? I guess their feeding habits must be different than budgies. I've never seen one of those where I live they are rather exotic looking, where are they from? Link to comment

I was going to buy rainbow lorikeets, but I didn't have the room. I would be interested into breeding them too though. Link to comment
