bebo08 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hi Guys, do you have any clue if this vitamin supplement is good or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 IF you are feeding your Grey a well rounded diet, no supplement is needed and in fact could be harmful. I would never recommend adding supplements to your Greys diet unless instructed to do so by your Avian vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bebo08 Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 actually, she doesnt accept to eat anything expcet for seeds ... i tried all the possible ways with her in the past 1 month and nothing seems to be working .. she only nibbles from broccoli and celery that i hang right next to the food bowl, other than that she just throws aways the vegetables, fruits and pellets ... so i thought i could add a little bit of this vitamin supplement in her water bowl until she starts to accept the different food i provide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrettyPax Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Have you tried wheat pasta or bread? Another good idea is to get some instant oatmeal (plain) and mix it with some baby food. I believe it was Judygram who recommended it. My bird is sooo picky about the temperature of her food, she really prefers everything to be heated. Also in terms of vitamins, people on the forum have suggested Red Palm Oil because it is an integral part of a Grey's diet in the wild. There have been many posts on the board written about it. You should check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 If the vitamins you're talking about have to be put in the water, you need to realize that the water will need to be changed frequently because those types of things mess up the water.

dhorje Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I do give my blue rumped parrots vitamins supplement until they have started eating pellets. Since pellets contain added vitamins and minerals there's no need to give vitamins supplement. As for my Grey, she is still eating handfeeding formula and also pellets which contain added vitamins and minerals. So supplementation is not required. But I do give her a little bit calcium supplement 2X a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
