Insane Lorikeet! Please Help!

[firdy num num]

Hi Parronts,

My Lori goes nuts when she sees me coming with a bunch of bottle brush flowers.

He/she becomes so protective of them that he/she screams and jumps around like crazy.

She even attacks the near by toys like a wild animal possessed.

Is this normal? Should I stop giving them? Any thoughts?
Thanks for your help in advance!

I would say s/he is just really over excited
I wouldn't worry , unless s/he becomes a danger to you or His/her self I would still give it
S/he obviously really loves it
Solo gets like that sometimes with his favourite treat

Insane lorikeet, isn't that NORMAL???

Ours don't go absolutely nuts bit they do get excited and hop around calling to me to hurry the eff up and let them at it!!!

The only thing I would be concerned about is the possessiveness factor as that aggression may turn into unpleasantness towards yourself and other members of the family.

Try to see if you can calm her down and feed them to her whilst you are holding them or have them in a neutral spot out of her cage.
Have you got a play stand you can pick a lot and have her forage?

It may be that she's not getting enough stimulation (trust me it's hard they pretty much need constant stimulation, they are a very needy bird especially if solo, some are lucky to have ones that aren't psychos @Renae )

Don't stop giving it, bottlebrush is their natural food.

They are natural nectar eaters, so keep them coming!

Tookie gets excited when he knows he is getting foods he really likes (sprouts and veggies for example), but I can't say he becomes real psycho when it comes to him getting them, lol. At least she looks forward to her bottle brush, sounds like she just gets a bit too over excited about it.

With ours the wet mix is the all hell breaks loose and beaks clash as they dive in up to their nares.

Then they all say "hello" into it. They're just weird.

You should see my guys when they see the millet coming out

Millet is crack to normal parrots like nectar is crack to lorikeets.
