My Sulfer-crested Too Lovie seems to be picky with his food. He can like something and then change his mind! He is not very motivated for nuts, but sometimes he is. Even if he likes it he can still throw it out. I want him to gain weight, but he doesn't make it easy! Even though I believe he eats what he needs, I feel like his breastbone is more prominent than it should be. He does not exercise those muscles much. He typically gets mash ( usually a new ingredient everyday) in the morning and TOPS pellets in the evening with treats whenever. I have tried oatmeal on a spoon, almond butter with his food, different fruits, finely chopped nuts in food. I leave him in his cage to eat in the morning alone, because if I take him out he won't eat. He'll just start playing. He goes through times where he does like this stuff, but he just doesn't seem to really love anything. Any suggestions? I want him to enjoy his food. I was thinking I might ask the rescue he came from for their mash recipe, maybe he will prefer it.
