Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What's the best food for my Blue Streaked Lory?
A complete nectar blend like Psittacus Lorikeet Nectar is ideal, paired with soft egg food and occasional fruit-based enrichment.

Yes, especially during moult, breeding, or recovery. They provide extra protein and are easy to digest.
