I'm sorry if I'm repeating a thread but I can't seem to find anything that will help me with this.
Okay, well, I have a baby teil, about 6-7 weeks old now, he LOOOOVES this special mix give him.... Egg/biscuit mix with some formula mixed in with some water(so it's all sloppy) very (very) finely chopped cucumber and a little lettuce and a variety of seeds sprinkled on top.
Loves it and eats it all, sometimes I'll vary it a bit and add some sprouts or the tips of broccoli or corn or peas.
The thing is.... If I give him a dish of seeds. He'll attack it like be hasn't eaten for a month and doesn't dehusk them at all, he won't touch the veg if it's any bigger than 5mm big :O, wont touch water, and flies around nonstop!:O
Okay, so I've got a few questions....
- anyway I can teach him to 'dehusk' or something
-any other way of helping/making him eat veg
- what to do about the water
-anyway to calm him down!? :O
-and should I keep feeding formula
( because it seems like he will never ever ween )
Sorry again if I'm repeating and thanks in advance!
