Okay I'll do that tomorrow then with the nesting stuff. I feed her like steam broccoli because that's the only way she'll eat it, same with carrots some other veggies and grapes or apples as her fruit of choice and she gets a small amount of mixed seeds
I would be concerned the baby will get enough nutrients with your current diet. Do you have access to any pellet diet products?

The only way I can get that is through online or the ones that are in pet stores.
Are they getting extra vitamins? Could you buy some from the pet shop?

I'll add that to the list and see if the pet store have that for birds, but you have one that you would recommend for birds?

For vitamins a cuttlebone would work and for pellets these pellets are good Harrison bird food

Um for the nesting however I got this and I'm hoping this would work for the baby and my baby Bastion (even though she's 6, she'll still be my baby)

There's a wood scent I guess.. because it is shaved wood but that is all.. is that okay still? I did also let the nest box with the woodsy smell sit on my desk for 30 minutes before putting the baby in.
