hi all im just looking for any sugestions to feed my grey in the morning if he will be in for at least 7 hours or so after i leave work. as i normaly hand feed him some warm porridge with bannana and currants mixed in but he tends to just take out the bannana and currants or sometimes nothing atall he also gets scrambled egg but not too much as ive read on previous threads.when i have given him these i make sure he has some fruit and nuts in his bowls for when i leave for wrk but im just looking for more suggestions.

oh...veg is a no no first thing in morning as i find it hard enought for him to eat at dinner time lol.

thanks in advance!

Here's what I'd posted in the Simple Grey Recipies/Cookbook room. They're pancakes using a modified version of the recipie on the back of a box of HungryJack pancake mix. This has been a HUGE hit with Chimay.

 

HungryGrey Pancakes (yeah I know, the name needs work)

 

Following/altering the recipie on the box of HungryJack pancakes. I only have one birdie so I went by the instructions for smallest increment, which was 8-10 pancakes.

 

-1 cup pancake mix as the box directs

-1 egg, crumbled and washed shell included

-Substituted the 2 tbsp. of cooking oil with 2 tbsp of red palm oil

-Substituted 1/3 of the 2/3 cups of milk in the directions with organic applejuice

-3 large strawberries, diced fine

-3 blackberries, smashed (the berries that I have are from my mom's local farmer's market, and they're HUGE)

-About 6 snow pea pods diced fine(I lost count...was watching TV while I made this. Ha ha)

-A small handful of flax seed

-"Powdered" almonds...ha ha. I run almonds through a coffee grinder that I have to grind spices and it comes out as a fine powder that I usually sprinkle on his dinner

-Make like regular pancakes. I used a soup spoon for dishing out the batter for teeny birdie cakes.

 

 

I'm sure you can modify the fruit/veggie content to whatever your birdie likes or what you have around the house :)<br><br>Post edited by: chimaysmommy, at: 2009/08/04 22:06

Oh I'd forgot to mention....on days where I don't have to work and can afford the time to clean up after him, I smash about 5 slices of banana up with a small dollup of peanut butter along with flax seed. Then I put it on a plate and watch his face get messier and messier. Ha ha! It's particularly fun to fling as well ;)
