Hey guys, i picked up these two guys from a friend of a friend (they can't take care of them anymore)
They are a bonded pair, they are some what skitch when i open the cage to give them new food/water bowl
I have done some research... but still have tons of questions.
Right now they only eat seeds, since that is the only thing they are use to. I do chop up carrots, corn, cucumbers, apples, bananas on random days. They stop by take a taste and just walk away. (only thing they finished or ate a bunch of was the sweet corn)
They are very finicky, and don't touch the pellets that i tried to give them, but i will keep trying. Question is... do you leave the food for them to choose? pellets vs seeds? or should i take out the seeds to let them try the pellets?
Also since they are a bonded pair... they already built a nest before i picked them so i am guessing they might be laying eggs soon? the first day or so i had them, they continued to build their nest every time i gave them timothy hay.
I have no clue when or if the ladybird will lay her eggs after they have stopped building their nest.
