I have 1 male & 1 female both 15 weeks old.
I had already bought a few mixes & also bought Zupreem pellets, as well as getting seed mix from the owner I bought them from.
Having tried mixing them in the food dish together, both birds spit everything out but the sunflower seeds.
I've been training them using millet which they absolutely love, but these 2 foods aren't healthy enough on their own & I've even bought tonics to add to the drinking water, but they refuse to drink the water with it in. I don't blame them for that as it smells awful & turns the water yellow, so god knows how bad it tastes.
I've tried different fruits & vegetables & all they do is look at them & walk over/past them or ignore them altogether.
Has anyone got any suggestions because I don't want to starve them to try & force them to eat the pellets, if that would even work, but I'm out of ideas now & having gone through a list of fruit & veg, I'm really not sure what else to do or try.
Thanks for any help
