fruits and vegetables

Post by Sonshineloveshermom » Wed May 06, 2015 5:10 pm

Hi thanks everyone for making me feel so welcome here. I am writing to say I give my birds a little bit of banana they love banana and sometimes tiny pieces of grapes. They hate carrots. Anyone have any suggestions of other real fruits I can give my birds.

Sonshineloveshermom hey Sonia! How are you?

You can give lucky and buddy strawberries and Apples, they may like that. Also, you can give them a variety of vegetables including cucumber, zucchini, broccoli, lettuce, kale, ect. :D :D :D :D

Mine really like grapes and apples, I haven't had success with other fruits and we've tried a few.

For veggies they like romaine lettuce,broccoli, and go absolutely bat crazy for diced corn bits. Still working on adding others as they seem to be quite particular.

Here's a very good link to the Finch Information Centers, Safe, Toxic, & Unsafe Foods. It should help you decide which foods you'd like to try.
