Re: Egg - Again - help
Mands that is so interesting!! I tried giving while pieces of food to mine and every time they refuse it but once I mince it to death they devour it!! I have tried fruit, lettuce, egg, etc and if it's whole they seem to look at it as an enemy. Glad you were able to get yours to enjoy eggs though! They will surely benefit from it!!

They are not devouring it how i would like, but they are having a go at it at least and the shell. The main ones who love it are my Cordons and African Fires, they also wouldn't touch it mashed.
You really have to wonder about their little minds and how they work. Out of 20 birds not one would touch it mashed, now i cut them in half and they ALL eat it. I guess it is like when one bathes they all do, even the ones across the room copy the others. But once again, only in their water dishes, not a bowl full of water, they wont go near it.
Try - again and again is what I have learnt with these little balls of fluff.
