Completely reformatted and revised including new sections on Lories and Lorikeets as Pets, Diseases and Disorders and Colour Mutations and Breeding Expectations, this title is bigger (with 152 pages), better and more colourful than the highly successful original edition. Peter Odekerken's exceptional photography again is beautifully supportive of the informative text which together make this a must-have title.

The author, Peter Odekerken, a highly experienced breeder of the lory and lorikeet group presents extensive information on general husbandry as well as specific details on each individual species.
