loshcosh Posted May 8, 2009 Author Posted May 8, 2009 He is doing fine with the new medication although he hates to get it. He goes back to our new vet in a couple of weeks for another xray. The negative part is that his appetite is down so any suggestions on finicky eaters? Really want to build him up to help fight this. Thanks
judygram Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Give him more of the things you know he loves to eat and go thru the bird food room for ideas for other things.
ZivaDiva Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I was thinking about him today and was going to post and ask how he was doing and someone beat me to it. I'm glad he's hanging in there. I have no advice on the eating thing as Ziva is a picking eater. I did find out recently that she likes cooked pineapple as she takes it off my pizza. Good luck and please keep us up to date on his progress.
she Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I am glad things are still going well.Give Eli what ever he wants to eat.Have his favourites at hand.
loshcosh Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 Just got back from the feed store and hoping that something will peak his interest
judygram Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I am on pins and needles waiting to hear all about it:whistle: B)
loshcosh Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 One of the items I got was nutri-berries and he seems to love them. So now we'll try some of the others
judygram Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Oh yeah nutri-berries, yes they are a favorite with most birds but alas Josey does not care for them, so what else did you get?
judygram Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Josey hasn't tried those but they should go over well, anything else you got and tried on him?
loshcosh Posted May 10, 2009 Author Posted May 10, 2009 The other thing I found were the different flavored noodles. He does really like those
judygram Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Pasta and noodles are also favorites of greys and Josey is no exception, she loves spaghetti, have you tried that yet?
ranaz Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Hi I hope Eli is doing better now Kookie loves guava, peas, pomgranates, almonds, kiwi, capsicum (with seeds), popcorn (no oil or salt) I hope Ive given u some ideas Please keep us posted on his condition and response to medication {Nature-00020095}
