well the key is to show your birdie how much you are enjoying those yummy veggies. for a new food, i eat it in front of him and make sure he can see i am enjoying it, usually he'll want to give it a try after that. most of the time that will get him to eat it from then on, however; sometimes he really just don't like it...
what other starchy food do you give your birdie?
