How much feed

[Jayd]

That's Grey't.... Beans I like: chick peas[garbanzo], mung, adzuki, no navy or lima. Rice: Brown, Basmati. Not to much fruit, more veggie's, small amount of fruit. Beans must always be cooked! SAME WITH RICE, IT WILL EXPLODE IN THEIR STOMACH! Some Cherrio's, Rice Chex, and all the chopped veggies, give them some slightly cooked carrots. I'll ad more each day. Jayd

[Jayd]

Abundant Feeding, Their going to waste almost all of what you give them,LoL. What your doing is teaching them "How to eat" and develop their taste's, your adapting them to solid food! As time goes on you'll stop giving them what they don't like, but for now, give-em all. Jayd

[tanyab]

ok will do. i feed them like norm. and they are full now....talking and walking around some.

[tanyab]

they sound like the are growling at each..are they talking???they are talking deep.. (growling)

[Jayd]

From now on, you'll be amazed at how much they grow each day, soon there puff [down] we'll be gone and they'll look like small adults, then the eyes change, keep the camera ready, in a few weeks no more babies...........Jayd logging out for lunch.

[tanyab]

ok enjoy ur lunch and talk tonite..thanks again..camera ready always now..lol
