pmaholm Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I was wondering what everyones Greys like best for their treats, we've been giving Refund just about every fruit and veggie we can think of to get a feel for what he likes. So far the only treats that are the most desirable are KayTee Mango Yogurt Dips, and almost any type of cheese. Thoughts anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 You can use anything that they love to eat, just observe what your bird loves the best and use that for treats when training and yes mine loves cheese too, she goes nuts when she sees the package come out of the fridge but you can't give them too much for they are lactose intolerant.

lovemyGreys Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Fruit & veggies i would offer daily as part of Refunds diet,as for special treats,pine nuts,sunflower seed,cheerios etc as you said the cheese but sparingly.There are many threads in the bird food room worth a read through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmaholm Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 We had also thought about lactose free cheese but it's pretty expensive. -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Both of mine go mad when they see the bag of pine nuts! These are a great treat while training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyric Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Lyric likes the peas in the pod, and cheese (goes nuts for it) and toast with a little peanut butter on it. He'd do anything for toast with butter on it but doesn't get this often- not as often as he'd like anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trustdace Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I train Congo with sunflower seeds and fresh papaya chunks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmaholm Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 I bought a very small amount of pine nuts since they're so expensive. $12.99 a pound the only place I was able to find them :ohmy:. We're still in the experimentation stage. We tried spaghetti last night and of course he was afraid of it :blink:. he did however like zucchini. Darn bird is eating better than me :evil: -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmaholm Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'm not sure, we've found it at couple of supermarkets it just says "Lactose Free Cheese" or something to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janfromboone Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Great Topic! Tobie likes cheeze too, I'll try lactose free. Do you suppose there is salt in it? Tobie isn't crazy about sunflower seeds or nuts, but I'll look for pine nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
