Hi there,
I have a young linnie and I notice two things about her. One of them is that it doesn't matter in what way I try to offer her veggies, fruits (the ones i read they like the most), she won't eat any of that. I tried to offer it by hand, by attaching it to the cage by her perches, to mix it with her seeds and pellets but nothing.
Another thing is, and maybe connected with the mentioned before,that she doesn't use her leg to help herself eat for exemple a sunflower seed, she would just struggle by eating with her beak and then let it fall.
Do you have any recommendations how can I get her to eat fresh veggies/fruits?
And if I can "teach her" to use her legs to eat like other linnies?
I spend a lot of time with her and try to offer everything fresh (like I remove the veggies after a few hours and replace it with a fresh one), but no interest. Instead, she would chew on everything else.
