Hey guys,
I have a young pair of lovebird siblings that I adopted in September 2016. Since then I've tried presenting them with different kinds of fruit and vegetables but they don't touch 90% of them.
I've tried bananas, apples, oranges and pears without any interest whatsoever, not even a lick.
They do, however, like green veggies such as salads, lamb's lettuce and just recently discovered - cucumbers! Again, they don't touch raddishes for example.
They also like hard boiled eggs and almonds, but just a little, nothing too much. However, it's the fruit that worries me a bit? I've tried adding sunflower seeds into fruit so that they get interested and pluck around a bit, but without success, they wouldn't touch the seeds either in those cases.
Any ideas, suggestions on what to do? Thanks!
Here they are eating the cucumber together
