Babs -- Ooh, you'll be in for a show! The hopping is just so precious!
lovezebs -- Yep, mine too! They're spoiled rotten! LOL
My friend was watching me prep all their foods the other day and she said, "Wow, you spend less than 1/4 of the time preparing your own food." And I realized that it's totally true! I'd never spend 30-45 min a day prepping my own food!
Though I found a couple of lovely shortcuts recently.
I finally got them to eat slices of cucumbers (instead of tiny little cubes). They eat out the center, creating a perfect ring of the skin! I put some millet seeds on the slices to get them interested. Took a few days but it finally worked!
And they've also started nibbling the whole eggshells. Huge timesaver there since I don't need to go through the ridiculous process of pounding shells into fine bits. I got them interested in the eggshells by using them as little cups for the egg food and it worked!
Though I have one who keeps stealing the half shells for use as nesting.

Silly kids.
