That is a photo of them the first day we got them which was last friday, and they both had food all thru there hair. We have bathed them since and they look a whole lot better. We have yet given them names so if anyone has any ideas please post some names. Harry is mine, he has a whole lot of attitude and thinks he is human. lol, he is sitting on my hand as I type, so if there are any errors, it his fault.he he. Harry is the bird in the photo on his own. We are feeding them lori wet. They love that stuff, as well as plenty of bread and fruit. The babies are only 7weeks and 10 weeks old. I am still uncertain as to what type of nature ie, to put in their cages, so again if anyone has any ideas please let me know.

The one on the left is a grey/green and is 10 weeks old. When they get bigger we are hoping to Breed them. We have four loris all of different breeds, and we are hoping they arent all males or all females.

hybrids are what you get from breeding 2 species of birds, and can cause all kinds of health problems, early death etc. I'll pm Nat, and see if she can respond, as I am sure she knows something about this!
