my gcc has been on a diet of zupreem natural pellets and chop basically since i got her (about 5 months). she really likes the pellets and tolerates the chop (more so if i add egg food or a small dollop of unsweeted apple sauce). the problem is i found out that pellets that have the main ingredient as a filler like ground corn are not really doing anything for you bird. so i decided to swtich to tops pellets for small hookbills. the problem now is that she would literally rather starve than eat these pellets. i've tried mixing in some of her old pellets or treats to ger her to eat the new pellets but she just picks out everything but the new pellets. i've also tried hand feeding it to her like a treat and that worked a little at first but i think now she's realized im just handing her the same pellets that are in the bowl so she's over it. i really REALLY don't want to cave on this because i spent a good amount of money for this food ($13 for the food and $15 for shipping) and i dont wanna just toss 3lbs of food. i am very frustrated with her and for now we are not on speaking terms but i know i will give in and forgive her soon so please give me tips before i cave. thanks in advance!!
