Healthy eating vs. tasteful eating.

Lola had a good night, and is taking to preening and grooming herself. She was not very vocal today, and aside from her kissing noises and the occasional growl of distrust, not a peep was heard.

I filled her bowl with Zupreem pellets today, in hopes that she would gobble them all up and make me proud! ...well, she did gobble them up, but then proceeded to spit them out and fling them. She doesn't like pellets. Actually, she hates pellets. I tried hand-feeding, giving them to the dogs, pretending to eat them myself...nada, nothing, zip.

She thinks I am poisoning her.

Her previous owner said she was fed, "whatever was cheapest" at Petsmart. I am assuming this meant a diet of seeds, because she LOVES seeds. And peanuts. She loves peanuts.

Mission 1: healthy-eating.
Challenge - accepted!


She played in and out of her cage today, but she refuses to step up. And is a pain to put in her cage for the night. I am still not covering her cage as I don't want to upset her routine too much just yet.

Ahh, the life of birds!
