How Are You Feeding The Veggies

[CeasarsDad]

Just sharing some "best practices" when it comes to feeding our Greys Veggies. I think we all agree Veggies are important to our Greys overall health and good looks. What I have found to be really easy to do it to buy bags of Frozen Mixed veggies.

 

In the morning I take a hand full of these and put them in a glass filled with water. Next it goes into the Microware for 1:45. While they are still on the hot side I hand feed them to Ceasar.

 

He LOVES stringbeans and carrots. After he eats a few pieces the rest goes in his Veggie bowl.. Doing this I am assured that he is getting his share of the needed nutrients his body requires.

 

If there is any left over veggies later in the day I then switch the next day to Fruit. If he ate all his Veggies he gets more Veggies the next day.

 

There have been many studies that show African Greys will regulate their diet to exactly what they require. The trick is making sure you have most of the foods he might need available for him. Veggies and Fruit are an important part of this basic food stock.
