I guess they look enough like sweet potatoes to get him started on them. He will pick at broccoli, but only if I cut the tops off into little tiny pieces. It's really just trial and error with them. What has helped me, though, is doing what you're doing ... offering only pellets and veggies during the day (especially in the morning... they wake up hungry!) and then giving stuff they like at night or as treats. I've been successful with my Hahn's doing things that way, and it's beginning to work with my TAG. You've just gotta stay consistent:^)

Now, my BG, on the other hand, will eat ANYTHING.
Okay, great. Thanks for the tips! Consistency is the key, you're right!

However, I'm HOPING when she get's a bit more mature she won't be so picky!! HOPING!!
