When Becca was hospitalized I would generally visit her every day. One time I went there and was surprised to see the bottom of the Intensive Care Unit covered with sunflower seeds. I knew she wouldn't touch them and I was right. Vet told me that they were hoping to fatten her up. He was surprised that she wouldn't eat them because she had started eating other foods.
I do hope the ginger will be beneficial. Maybe try some baby food instead of the almond butter, just for the flavor.
Good you have experience tube feeding even though that was with larger birds. I probably should have learned but my birds would usually take food via syringe although Scully would take very little and that's why he went to "Birdie Day Care" for gavaging and observation. Vet felt that he would be OK with the short drive daily.
