I just got told to give my parrot oatmeal & apples for his medication. He took one bite, shook his head while flinging the oatmeal… right on my white carpet no, I am not kidding this just happened days ago. Oatmeal is much easier to get out of the carpet than blue berries. I finally understand what his argument is about.Tried a bunch of different ingredients in chop and various amounts of chopping in the food processor from coarse to paste. Total no-go for him. It must be freshly cut by hand and exactly the right size or else! I'm told most parrots love cooked oatmeal too, but if it's anything sticky or goopy, he won't go anywhere near it. Oddly, he'll eat plain oatmeal dry.
Parrots are weird, and I love it!
