charlie isnt a huge fan of pellets so i tend to crush it up and mix it with some juice or water (looks like baby porridge) for his dinner
then add grated carrot, sweetcorn, apple or whatever i have in the fridge.
or i add cooked veg and mix it in and he loves it and eats it all.
it dries like glue on the walls and on his perch but that is a small price to pay cus at least he eats it  :biggrin:
i leave dry pellets for him the whole day mixed with his usual food but he tends not to touch that many pellets

Which did you go for? I bought Tropican for Lexie and that stuff stinks   :grumble: it smells exactly like that pink bubble gum I used to get when I was a kid (bubble king I think it was called  :laugh:). I also got free samples from animalzone and they are alot less smelly  :haha:

I like the fact at the mo she has the tiny tropican pellets as well as the larger sticks from animalzone, a wee bit of their museli and then a few plumage sticks too. I wonder if it's an okay idea to keep giving her a mixture of different suitable complete pellet foods - change it up a bit for her . . . . .
