What are some websites on how to take care of a baby lorikeet?

Answer 1

How old is it? Did you find it outside in the wild? Here are some sites on how to care for Lorikeets/Lorys. If it is weaned you need to feed it the nectar mix specifically made for Lorikeets and Lorys, it is a powder mix. You can also offer it the special pellets they make.  They need a cage with plenty of room and plenty of toys. They are very messy and require multiple cage cleanings a week. They are also loud. I absoultely love my Swainson's Lorikeet. Water has to be changed at least once a day, often times more. There;s more so read the information on the websites.

Answer 2

I hope you don't mean how to hand feed an UNWEANED baby. Lorikeets require special diets -- they do not eat seeds. Their diet is almost entirely nectar -- you get a powdered mix at any petstore that sells bird food. I hope you're prepared for the messiness.
