A chunky chop so he can see what food is in the bowl. Try cooking sweet potato and serving it in chunks with cinnamon sprinkled on top or mash the sweet potato and mix with cinnamon. It's trial and error when trying to find out what they will eat. Most birds don't like the taste of greens like kale, Swiss chard....I chop it up real fine and toss their favourite food in it so that it sticks. You gotta learn to outsmart them...lol
