Hello, I hope you are doing well. This is a new journey for me as I have just adopted a double yellow headed amazon parrot. We do not have details of his past however the last 3 weeks have been life changing. Charlie has brought so much love, joy, and excitement into our home. We truly feel as though he has blessed our lives rather than us saving his. My family has always had parrots so I am familiar with the upkeep and well-being that is required. My question currently is he seems to like the 3-D Parrot Food however after hours of research I found that he needs pellet food. I immediately seeked the best food I could find which was Harrison's Bird Food (high potency corse) which is what was recommended. I have followed all recommendations however Charlie just does not seem interested in it and won't eat it. I refuse to let him go without food so I end up putting his 3-D Parrot Food back in his cage (newly purchased and over recommended size). I have also ordered him Dr Harvey's Parrot Food however he doesn't care much for that either. Of course he has his water changed twice a day and fresh vegetables and fruit in the morning and offered in the evenings but he just doesn't seem to be that interested in it. Any help would be greatly appreciated as to any tips or advice on feeding or is it okay to keep him on the 3-D Parrot Food. In the past 3 weeks we have bonded tremendously, for instance he now whistles, is saying hello, give me kisses, working on whatcha doing and I love you, and tonight for the first time he came to our dining room table and decided he wanted to have dinner with us. Everyday gets better and better and thankfully I have not seen any bad habits. Thank you in advance
Sincerely
Kim and Charlie
