Hi. My golden conure isn't ready to come home yet but soon he likely will be.
What I notice. He goes at it with seeds... but he frankly sucks at it. He will put one in his mouth for like a minute, not shell it, then spit it out. One out of ten he will actually successfully eat. He is still being hand fed. Anyway, he also is slightly better at creating the bite force needed to eat pellets, but he stinks at that too and will spend way too much time trying to eat it only to spit it out and swallow nothing.
What is a very soft, easy to eat food I could give him? And I mean really really easy to eat? Maybe some tony dices of sweet potatoes or apples? Perhaps really skinny sliced and diced dried bananas? I just want him to eat more. He is still being weaned but shows a lot of consistency in trying to eat successfully. He is just a newbie though.
