Mom is doing a good job feeding her babies, but to help hand tame them I want to also do some hand feeding. Per:
https://theparrotuniversity.com/arthandfeeding1#basics
I feel somewhat confident, since these little guys are so old, feathered, and able to perch.
Question is on formula, all the pet shop had was Kaytee Exact!
Ingredients:
Ground Corn, Ground Wheat, Corn Gluten Meal, Ground Oat Groats, Wheat Middlings, Soy Oil, Dried Whole Egg, Soy Protein Isolate, Dried Beet Pulp, Soybean Meal, Ground Flax Seed, Dicalcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate, L-Lysine, Wheat Germ Meal, Brewers Dried Yeast, Vitamin A Supplement, Salt, Algae Meal (source of DHA), L-Arginine, Fructooligosaccharide, Choline Chloride.....plus....
I have a large mix of high quality pellets, and huge quantities of ground pellets(mixing with the sprouts for the adults). The ingredient list on these pellets is much better that the Kaytee! OK to make a slurry/paste with this? Or just go the human baby food route?
