Or separate with their favorite seeds on top

Sometimes it takes quit a while to get goulds to try new things

Pity you don't have a canary. The easy way would be to put another bird with them that enjoys eggfood. Canaries are absolute guts.

I had this problem too... someone suggested mixing millet in with the egg and it worked.

Interestingly all my birds took to shredded greens really well - so I also put the greens right beside the egg/millet mixture on the floor of their cage and that worked too!
