Lola - Noble Macaw
Adopted from a local parrot rescue. We think she is about 15 years old.
Our Noble Macaw is (we think) about 15 years old. When she moved in, we were told to feed her meat, fruit and veges along with her seed diet that she came with.
First - Hilariously, any time i offer her a vegetable, no matter how I offer it or which vege, she literally runs away from it. I can't help but laughing. She is so much like a 3 year old. However, I don't know how to get veges into her.
Second - her seed diet... she basically only eats little white seeds out of it and leaves everything else.
Third - I'm quite confused on diets for Parrots. To Seed or not to Seed? Some places say Seed only with meat/fruits/veges. Some places say Pellets only with meat/fruits/veges/seed addition.
would love to hear thoughts on any or all of these.
thanks!!
