gourdlady247 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 How often do you feed your greys oatmeal. George loves it with fruits and stuff mixed in. After a couple hours i go to take it out and get him his pellets( which he doesn't like very much) he runs to his bowl just to get last bite.

BaxtersMom Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I just started making oatmeal for my flock and have been giving it to them 2 or 3 times a week. (When ever I make it for myself;) ) All my guys love the oatmeal and gobble it all up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cflanny Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 personally I make it every morning with pellets mixed in cause hes fighting me on eating them:P I give him scrabbled eggs once a week. These morning meals are where I get his palm oil in:) he gets so excited about his warm meals he sings the whole time he eats I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nims Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Indy had oatmeal everyday for breakfast and I put bananas in it or crushed pelletes or honey. Whatever you want really. Indy really enjoys it first thing in the morning and starts to scramble in her cage as soon as she hears the kettle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gourdlady247 Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 What is the palm oil for?. What nutrients do it have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 ""The palm oil has a high anti oxident value & is an excellant source of beta carotenes which is converted in to vitamin A. It can improve feather condition, allowing new feathers to grow in strong & glossy, it also has been suggested that it aids some greys to decrease the need to pluck. It aids in breeding, and generally promotes overall good health."" I too feed oatmeal almost every day with the palm oil in it and you can add other things to it, I don't have to add pellets for Josey eats them fine just like they are.

gourdlady247 Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 do i add the palm oil after the oatmeal is cooked and how much do I add. I was afraid I was feeding him oatmeal to often. He really likes eggs and I know he can only have it once a week, He gets those on Saturday or Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Yes I add it after cooking and I add about 1/4 teaspoon and mix it up real good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perch Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Gracie likes her oatmeal with apples in it. Fortunately, I do to. Now if only I could teach her how to make it for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave007 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I get mine from Swanson too. I get about 5 or 6 jars at a time. I've been buying from them for about 6 yrs. It's very inexpensive, delivery is quick and the other extra thing is that you will periodically get catalogs with pictures of every single vitamin/health products you can imagine. It's great in case you're into vitamins and other health products. All that stuff is also inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gourdlady247 Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 you guys must have read my mind. Cause I was looking for Palm Oil at the grocery store tonight. Couldn't find. Doug said well you know who to ask where everyone else gets it. Yep my new grey friends. If it weren't for you guys George would probably be in bad shape.

judygram Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Oh I doubt that Marla but look how much better off you and George are for being members of our greyt forum but Doug is right, you can ask us anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
