I was wondering what type of fruits and veges you feed your fids.
I don't think ive been giving my fids a large range of fruits and veges. They do get more veges than fruits though.

My fids don't seem to be picky when it comes to food and usually eat anything I give them.

So what do you give them?
And does anyone have a list of what fruits and veges are good/bad for your fid?
Ive looked and I keep getting so many different sites say different things. Some say these are good and others say the same food is bad.
So im not sure :p
Thank you :D

I feed just about what Parrotmamma feeds but she forogt one of Forrest's favorites..........red bell peppers. That is his absolute favorite.
Dr Harvey's makes a dried veggie mix that you add to hot water and let it reconstitute...carrots broccoli potatoes, sweet potatoes, lots of different ones. They really like it if you don't have time or can't get seasonal veggies. It is Veg to Bowl
