Getting bird to eat fruits & veggies
Hi there! Not sure where to post this, but I wanted to share a discovery (for me anyway) on how to get your bird (I have a budgie) to eat her fruits/veggies.
My first budgie did not want to eat anything else but her seed. I tried to take the seed out and give a plate of veggies but she wouldn't touch it. However, she loved her mirror, of course. One day, I decided to put her mirror on the bottom of the dish I was putting the veggies in and you guessed it - she went for the food! I guess she watched the "other bird" eating and thought she'd get some too. Since then, I've always put some veggies on a little flat mirror and my new budgies have always gone for it. After awhile you can take the mirror away if you want.
I hope this helps someone's bird eat their fruits and veggies!
