Heya guys, I just want to say a big thank you for your advice. We give her a mix of pellets and fruit in the morning and then after work we come back and check she has enough food, if not, we give her some peas or sweet corn, she loves them. Thank you once again!

Hi Everyone! First of all, I'd like to mention that I am a newbie here and so I apologize if my question is a little silly! My family and I just bought our baby african grey home last week and we all love her to bits. She's about 14 weeks old now. I wanted to ask about how much we should feed her. We were told to feed her in the morning and the evening, but through out the day she seems to get hungry and squeals and growls quite loudly, but stops when we give her something to eat. At the moment, my family and I are at home for the summer so we can feed her, but in two weeks time we will all be at work for 8 hours in the day from 8 till 4, during which we wont be able to feed her on command. This morning I attempted at giving her food to last her until the evening, which included a mix of seed and pellets (not a lot as I know its fattening for her) and in a separate bowl I gave her a mix of fruit and vegetable. But the problem is, she's eaten most of it already, and it's only been an hour. I'm worried that when we are away that she'll do the same. I wanted to ask, how do I get her to not eat so much in one go and secondly, how much should I be giving her in the morning? Thank you to everyone who helps me out in advance!
