On
the previous comic strip, we have talked how important it is to check
bird poops daily, I can even tell whose poop it is because of this. Now,
to make sure birds will poop something normal, they must eat normal
healthy food too, not just seeds and pellets but also fresh veggies and
fruits.
Problem
is birds are picky eaters. And the problem will become harder if you feed birds
in an aviary or a colony cage, you just can't tell who has eaten what.
That's why it's important to have a one on one play time with each bird
so that you can recognize which vegetable one likes best. You can even
encourage them eating new veggie by using it as toys when you play
together.
After
a while, you'll get this enhanced vision that will let you know who
done it by just seeing the remains of the victims..., err, the veggies.
Some birds have their own distinctive way of eating their food, sprouts
for example, Peanut likes to hold down a sprout with his foot and rip the
middle part of it, like an eagle! or just bite it in the middle and shake his head to
get some parts off (though it usually ends up with him getting slapped on the
eyes by either the head or the root part :D ). Pipi will just eat the neck part of the sprouts, Petpet will sip dry the water from the whole sprout, Pepe will just chew them randomly.
If you haven't done it, give it a try and observe. It's kinda fun to find a new fact everyday by playing with your birds. And you don't have to use expensive pet store toys to play with them. Use your creativity and turn vegetable into toys. They have different shapes and colors. They can easily get chopped and joined together using a skewer, cable tie, toothpicks... Just use your imagination, the possibilities are endless! ;)
Last but not least, a whole new bird
