I've never experienced introducing brand new palates to new foods . These newbies are not afraid of anything! All of my birds have had a past before they came to me and it's so exciting to see these new ones excited about real food!

It's refreshing to experience a clean emotional slate... hopefully with our efforts, future generations will have a better quality of life as companion birds. I encourage everyone to research and follow the science in the well being of companion birds, they do fit in as a domesticated species if only their caregivers would learn all they can about the well being of captive parrots and how best to co- exist with our feathered friends.

Teeny, Tiny and Mo still think that fruit and veggies might be their friends . I'm playing along with that thought!

Watching them grow, fly and eat new things much be so fun to watch! Love it!

Luckys being tough to crack on trying new thingsim not going to give up thoe so far he likes green grapes baby carrots and broccoli thoe he onlty eats a couple bit of the carrot and broccli and only eats about 1 whole grape no skin on the grapes
Try giving Lucky some pomegranate seeds....most birds like them. You could try steaming some sweet potato as well.

All my birds..except for Shaggy..love cooked brown rice and I like to mix some scrambled eggs with it a few times a week. The 'tiels LOVE it. I'm having a bit of a time getting Shaggy to embrace our healthy bird diet. She likes the seed diet, period. The previous owner said all the right things that I wished to hear about what she ate..in reality,,she only REALLY, prefers seed..and banana

Casper was just the same when he came to us

Well I hope Shaggy will want what he sees you eating, that's how Lady is with us.
