Pellets & Peanut butter

[ranaz]

I have always found it difficult to convince Kookie to eat his pellets (Harisons is the only one available here), and no matter how hungry he is he will shred the pellets into pieces and barely eat from them...that was all until we tried peanut butter (lowfat with peanut pcs inside) and Kookie went so nuts about it that he licked the spoon clean...so it occured to me to add little of this peanut butter to the broken pellet pieces and guess what...Kookie thought it was talon lickin good...LOL

 

Im glad to have finally found a way to make him eat pellets...

That is great that you found a way to make him eat pellets. Hopefully he doesn't figure out that you tricked him LOL.

Thats a great idea but go easy on the peanut butter as it is high in fat, my birds especially my sun conure loves peanut butter but it is an occasional treat.

yeah thanks I will go easy, but I got the low fat one, and I will only use a little so that it wil give a lavor to the pellets.

I hope it works on the long run and he wouldnt discover my trick...
