they love it...funny as I serve the birds the birds in the cages I have not gotten to yet seem to be checking out what the others got and some go to the specific door waiting for their soft food dish!

That's hilarious, but now that I think about it, mine do that too, when egg or veggie trays go in. They sit close to the bars looking into the other flights, to see who's getting what today.

I'll have to try your recipe. Any specific amounts of ingredients? Or instructions?

I buy bags of corn, peas, mixed veggies frozen. I usually buy the 1 lb bags and warm them on the stove just enough to thaw as I chop the fresh veggies. The frozen veggies are also run through a few chops in the Ninja chopper to make them small enough, easier for finches to eat.

That looks like a recipe I will need to try.

sometimes daily or every other day...I vary the veggies and sometimes use sprouted seed or mung beans.
