Eating

My Senegal does not eat the small seed that comes in the seed mix I buy. I was wondering if I should get a larger parrot size food mix? Xander does eat a pellet that is the next size up from conure size. He loves to hold his food and eat it.

Yes, my :senegal: holds her food, too. She has her favorites in her mix... she doesn't really like the pellets as much as she likes the dried fruit and nuts. But remember that pellet mix should only account for so much of a parrot's diet... Senegals need fresh food above all. :thumbsup:
