All my fids have been seed junkies no matter how hard I tried to convert them. They came to me like that. I tried to soak the pellets in juice and applesauce - they'd nibble on it. Finally I gave up and stated buying the Volkman seed for them (probably the best quality seed on the market now)...

Hi Everyone. I've been missing Parrotforums due to an ailing laptop. So I have a lot of reading to catch up on the goings on. Getting to it: How long would you wait to see if your conure will give in and eat the dry bird food you give her/him? Some of you know Pritti - he's a funny, fussy...

'fess up y'all. as for me -- more than I care to admit (although I don't swallow them). LOL. :green1:

So with any luck I want to be adopting an alexandrine soon after Xmas, and I'm just looking at maintenance costs, how long (on average of course) will say a 10kg bag of pellets last for 1 Alex??? Obviously as well as supplementing the diet with fresh fruits and vegetables. I'm also open to...

Hey guys, I'm new to conures. I just acquired a six week old cinnamon green cheek and I'm currently hand feeding it the baby formula. (For those of you who already see a red flag, I have hand fed many different animals, both "feral" and domesticated. I was a student at a veterinary assisting...
