My sun conure like when I hang his veggies and fruits with clamps on his playstand. While he play, he often stop to take a bite and end up eating most of his fruits/vegetables everyday. So, if nothing else worked, try hanging them high, my sun conure love to eat high.
I give my conure, snow peas, brocoli, carrots, spinach, orange pepper, asparagus, cauliflower, etc (I'm forgetting alot) Fruits : mangoes, papaya, pears, apples (without the seeds), strawberries, etc ...(he doesn't like bananas and kiwi) he'll however eat dried bananas... weird... (as for the fruits, I give him less fruits per day than veggies) He'll always finish up the fruits first and when he's done with his fruits and realize he won't get anymore, he proceed with his veggies. Sometimes when he's not in the mood to eat one kind of veggies he'll just have a blast destroying it and blob his head while looking at me
So, basicly from what I've seen. They're moody/picky birds that will eat what they are hungry for. So, give him alot veggies choice everyday and try hanging them up and I'm sure the curious little conure will have to go explore these veggies with his beak in no time. Once he's used to eat veggies, you can try cutting them up and put them in a bowl. Mine will eat his fruits/vegetables from a bowl but will eat less of them then if they were hanged.
I also give him all kind of nuts, one of his favorite is a walnut split in half. He grabs it with his claw and eat it away and make cute noises.
Hope it helps.
