well, arlene has been here just over a week. i've been trying to get her to eat mash and fresh fruits n veggies. but all she's going for is pellet. i've tried taking the pellet out of her cage at night so she's hungry in the morning, but she'll sit there w/an empty crop till i put the pellet back in and growl/snap at me when i take out the mash cup and dive right into the pellet cup. does the same thing w/the veggie/fruit cup in the afternoon.
it's a really good pellet, Exact Natural, but it's not what she should be eating and it's frustrating. should i keep trying w/her? she's at least 17yrs old and she's pretty well set in her ways, it's only been a little over a week and she's still a very angry bird. amazons, 'toos, and greys are easy feeders compared to a neglected ekkie.
how long do y'all think she'll last like this?
