Liefie is happy!

[liefie1]

Liefie is doing so well i can even see the diference

in him since sunday untill now, at first he did not want us to hold him ( rather sleep in his basket)

today he is runing after me and moaning alot if i put him down!! He is also much more awake and is playing

even exercising his wings!!

But he would eat as long as i give him food even if his crop is very full , i only feed him enough

so that his crop is full.

should i feed him if he wants more food inbetween feedings???

I am not sure cause i can see he is underweight.

 

Is there something that i can faten him up with??

exept for his formula?? can i give him some soft

fruit or veggies???

 

Kind regards

What is it that you're feeding him to fill his crop, formula? Does he want want more in between feedings or are you just asking in case he does want it? If he wants more, give it to him. You can't overfeed a baby grey or any other parrot. If he wants more food in between feedings it's because he is growing and is more active. Usually, a parrot will tell you when he doesn't want a formula feeding because he'll spit it up and that tells you that one less formula feeding is correct. He'll eat more of the other things in his bowl. That's all part of the weaning process which takes different amounts of time to happen because greys are all different from each other.
