Eating / Diet
My 5 month old Yellow Head Amazon Parrot, is not swallowing his pellets or seeds instead he is nibbling on them. I tried the formula again but he is resisting that also.
Question:
Answer:
Hi Jamie,
He may be learning to break his food in smaller pieces before he swallows it. When they are working on a pellet or other food, watch carefully because as he breaks it up, you should see him push some food to the back of his throat with his tongue. If you feel like he is not eating at all, then you need to take him to an Avian Vet right away.
Thank you for asking Lafeber,
Brenda
