Hi everyone, I just signed up today after lurking around for a while. I Have a little guy named King Rufus (DNA test shows he's a male). Anyways, I've had him for three weeks and he's about 7 weeks old.
I know, I know people despise breeder's who do this but I convinced them to sell me Rufus because I'd been researching greys for the last year, speaking to her and visiting the nursery for a while and I also felt extremely confident in hand feeding and care. He goes to the vet (avian board certified) every two weeks for check ups and he's doing awesome..... end disclaimer.
So now, on to my actual question. What's a good pellet to start the weaning process? As of today, he is 403 grams and is getting approximately 42mL at each feeding. He has also started picking at and eating WET cheerios and ZuPreem fruit mix pellets, they are super soft for now. He also likes corn, green beans, carrots and banana (small pieces of course).
I plan on discussing it further with my vet next week but I wondering if you guys had some info on a good pellet to start the pre-weaning and also the weaning process. Thanks!
