My baby bird won't eat on his own!

That is great that he likes the warm foods! I wouldn't worry too much about the seeds. Seeds are like junk food to them. The fruits and veggies are more important for him to eat because they are healthy! Have you tried giving him nuts? Pine nuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds, peanuts are my babys favorite! Especially pine nuts, he eats them soooo fast! You should make a pellet, seed, and nut mix for your baby. What kind of pellets have you tried giving to him? My baby likes the Zupreem fruity pellets. I mix those pellets with some seeds, and all the nuts I mentioned above. I also put dried fruit in that mix and he loves it.

Hi Helen,;) Glad to hear Cookie is doing better!!!I feed Spock,9am, formula, 12:noon smash, 5pm, smash, then his bed time formula at 9pm...All birds are different! I put seed and pellets in his cage when he goes to bed then remove the seed at 9am, I put the cut Veggies in his cage at 12noon and remove them at bedtime.This is what we do,it might be different for Cookie!I don't leave smash in Spocks cage very long, long enough for him to eat it...:P Jay and Maggie

KEEP LETTING HIM FEEL YOUR LOVE, You can never spoil him to much....Maybe someone on the Forum could give some advice...You can call his vet if needed. He just might need you. :) Your doing so good with him, don't stress out...sounds like he likes to cuddle! All our babies do strange things, Spock comes over to us and growls softly when he wants to cuddle...Jay

B) Helen, have you done Blanket training with Cookie? get a soft baby diaper or fleece, something his nails won't get caught in, cut a piece big enough to go around him, size of hankerchef, put him on you lap or flat area,and let him play with it. Slowly try to put it on his back then over him then where you can pick him up wraped in it!!!Play with him... Jay{Feel-good-000200A2}
