ok I love the big green bird aka Hiram with all my heart but he drives me nuts sometimes!I'm still working on him taking pellets in his bowl..he refuses to eat them.I've put them in water and apple juice..even peanut butter.He will taste them and just drop them.SO for the last month heres what i have been doing.I use them in the birdy bread recipe.I put alot through the food processor and grind the pellets finely.So its almost the same consistency as the flour.I use the corn flour and then the ground pellets as a mix..added alot of greens, sweet potatoe, broccoli, cauliflower,and frozen mixed veggies..oh and 3 eggs with shell and applesauce for flavor.i also add cayenne peppper to the mix.Then mornings i give him this.Most mornings he likes it warm and this morning he wanted it cool.Is he getting enough if hes only eating this mix..I mean as far a pellets?He also gets veggies,fruits and other things cut up during the day.I also started giving him a piece of avi cake or nutri berrie for a treat at night...with seeds.I just want to do whats right for him..but he is so picky when it comes to his food.I was thinking maybe i should try a smaller pellet?I'm using nupreem natural now and trying Harrisons in a few and just leaving it in his bowl.I'll let you know on the new brand.
