subject: Picky Eaters vs Piglets

DW>If I didn't know better I would think your birds were related to Meggie
DW>Bobbi Brinker and my CAG. She and all of Bobbi's babies are little
DW>piglets. She will eat anything I give her and pigs out on all of it. She
When I had one or two birds, they were very picky.  Now that the flock
has increased, I am wondering if they are pigs in bird costume.  I
wonder if it has to do with the size of the flock (all bird flock or
combo birds & people flock) eating together. When they are enough eating
together, they become more concerned with getting something to eat
rather than fussing about what they are eating.  Even when there is
plenty for all. I only had one picky eater, my YN who used to be the
only Amazon. My YN eats everything now that she has some competition at
mealtime. She never even touched a yam until everyone(birds & people)
stopped sharing them with her.  She started to wonder what she was
missing and finally got one little piece. She ate it.  She used to be a
real pain to eat now she is no problem.  I have them on pellets, seed,
fruits, vegtables and those small white beans that i can never
spell-Cannellini(?).
