So young to have such a discerning taste. You're in for a ride with her! :laugh:

Such a cute picture holding her cherry. :swoon:

I love how eating cherries makes them look like little velociraptors

Here's Jade's chop today! Her regular chop (kale, Swiss chard, carrots, broccoli, green beans and peas plus maybe a couple of things I'm forgetting), plus cherry, blackberry, blackberry, quinoa and a dash of cinnamon!

I'm still amazed at what a good eater she is. Maybe because you got her young? Our guys each came with their own bad habits. Luv Bug's owner even gave her a small saucer of coffee each morning. :(

Could be, when I got Jade she was only 3 or so months old. She was weaned onto pellets, and never really had a chance to become a seed junkie (although she knows exactly where I keep the sunflower seeds ;)). I've always tried to encourage a variety of things, so hopefully she will be open to different foods in the future.

It's a night and day difference from Chirp, who only ate his pellets and millet.

Jade's adorable! So sorry to bother you but, you know the sunflower's you sprouted for her, wdo you know whether they were the striped ones or black oil ones? I'm not sure what to order :) Thanks!

Today Jade tried watermelon! I offered a little piece but she was too scared to take a bite. So I smashed it up and drew it up into the syringe, and she liked it! Although I don't know if it was just because she likes the syringe, lol.
