Im sorry I cant tell you where to get them [I live in the states].But I do own a yellow streaked lory and let me give you some advice.Please understand their diet.They are messy,everythings sticky .Put something plastic on the walls behind and underneath their cage[for easier clean up].My lory likes to play ALOT .get lots of toys,swings and foot toys.[He likes to play alot on the bottom].They need a pretty big wide cage [so they can play] Their super smart and like to show off.I put mine on a blanket on the back of the couch with foot toys and watch him go!He always is sticking his tongue in my ear :D Hes the only one of my birds that talks in phrases.But to be aware that they are very aggressive to other birds.He has to be out by himself.Their hams definately circus material. :D

Where abouts in the UK do you live? There's a website called Birdtrader.co.uk where people advertise their birds for sale, don't know if you know of it allready. But there is a shop in Greater Manchester with a breeding pair of Rainbow Lorikeets. I don't know if they deliver though if you don't live close enough. I hope I helped a bit :)

Would definitely help to know your rough location.

If your struggling to find someone to get them from it may be worth e-mailing a few breeders of other species and asking if they know of anyone. Most good breeders will have a few contacts who deal in species they may not breed themselves. I know of a couple of breeders I could ask for you if you are located in the middle of England or are willing to travel to see if they know anyone.
