I was wondering how he liked the freeze dried... that’s great that he was asking for his not chop lol!So the freeze dried that was only nibbled on when dry but was chewed more when moistened. I have tried freeze dried on him before without real results but the chunky chop seemed to be more encouraging.
Ripley surprised me today though. I have been giving Not Chop every day, but today I got up late and had to scramble to get the family out the door for an event we were going to. When we got home, Ripley was banging away at his food dish - something he does when his demands are not being met in some way. He had pellets and fresh water, and had already had his almonds for the day. I was not convinced he was asking for veggies but figured I would try anyways.
Sure enough, went straight to his bowl! Dumbfounded, to say the least! Went from a bird that doesn't touch veggies to scolding me for not offering

Good news that Ripley is shouting at you if he doesnt get his not chop.So the freeze dried that was only nibbled on when dry but was chewed more when moistened. I have tried freeze dried on him before without real results but the chunky chop seemed to be more encouraging.

I dont do that enough as KiKi can't deal with them half the time and she gets frustrated but hopefully as she gets more confident will be able to do it more it is a winner.I've been giving meloncita non chop, the kabob is new and I absolutely love it. View attachment 411490
Is what you mean that your bird has trouble keeping it still because the one I got is a little heavy, so eating off it isn't too hard.I dont do that enough as KiKi can't deal with them half the time and she gets frustrated but hopefully as she gets more confident will be able to do it more it is a winner.
