She was 206 grams and the avian vet said she needs to lose 20% of her body weight in two months. That was a month ago.
Their diet is totally changed, only veggies, no carrots or sweet potatoes or fruits or juices, and Harrison's fine and pepper coarse (JoJo eats the coarse).
I leave free range pellets while i am gone and i see her eating them on the nestcam. When I get back, her weight is 206 grams after having a steamed zucchini coin. That's all I serve but pellets are again eat all you can. By bedtime her weight is 210 grams, so she is pigging out on Harrison's fine.
I'm thinking that in the evenings I'll serve more veggies like peas and steamed zucchini and sweet chili pepper rings, eat all you want, and take out the fine pellets from the cage. Her stomach will get full with the watery veggies and no dense pellets. I hope that will kickstart a downward trend.
I just wanted to see if this is a good plan. She might start eating JoJo's coarse, in which case I'll have to take all pellets out, and give them to JoJo separately. He is losing weight nicely.
