He LOVES hanging out. I’ve been told he’s quite young, but honestly the previous owners could have told me anything.I’ll keep trying different treats. Maybe I’ll buy him some seeds even though I’m hesitant to buy them.Does he like hanging out with you? I mean could getting a head scritch or a shoulder cuddle work? How old is Javi, again? If he’s as young as I seem to think he is, you may have to experiment with different treats. He may not know yet what he really likes....
There is nothing that motivates my two more than a sunflower seed, i think if you are offering them as training rewards you will be fine.Maybe I’ll buy him some seeds even though I’m hesitant to buy them.
I’ve tried nuts and he’s not a fan. He won’t even entertain the idea of putting them in his mouth. It’s like he doesn’t know they’re food.There is nothing that motivates my two more than a sunflower seed, i think if you are offering them as training rewards you will be fine.
I give mine a seed mix in there foraging box as well, and use seed in various foraging toys.
Have you tried pieces of nut ? KiKi will do something for a piece of walnut, Mojo wouldnt entertain a piece though.
I wouldnt massively stress over offering a small amount of seed.
Chop a walnut up throw in with his chop converted KiKi dont chop to smallI’ve tried nuts and he’s not a fan. He won’t even entertain the idea of putting them in his mouth. It’s like he doesn’t know they’re food.
Eat one in front of him and then offer some. Mine are such suckers for "hooman" foods and liquids. It's just water in my glass, but it's so much better than that garbage I just freshened the water bowl with... No attempt at convincing is believed!!I’ve tried nuts and he’s not a fan.

Sorry @FeatheredM, I didn’t see your message. We’ve tried flowers, nuts, a large variety of fruits, and a large variety of veg.What have your tried?
Have you tried pumpkin seeds? I also use these treats for training(I found them at Walmart. ) I don't use some of the stuff in there like corn but the rest is great for training. I keep some of the stuff as a very special once in a while treat like the peanuts.Sorry @FeatheredM, I didn’t see your message.

I tried pine nuts because Tui loves them, but he wasn’t interested. I might try them again though since he’s taken an interest in sunflower seeds.I use pine nuts and sunflower seeds for training smaller pieces the better
Sounds like Quarter...He won’t even entertain the idea of putting them in his mouth. It’s like he doesn’t know they’re food.
He likes millet. I'll try this. Thank you.What about millet ? Mine do anything for millet neither of them knew what it was at first I hung a piece up in their cage once they tired it that was it red millet seems to be a fav they only get millet seeds in training or in foraging toys in their cages seems to work for us good luck I love when they learn new things so rewarding he’s gorgeous from ur profile pic
