Question Tiel Treats

My tiel seems to not like most treats that I get to him. I would like to know some that your birds enjoy. I tried avi-cakes, yogurt dips and more. What is a treat that most cockatiels like that is bite size?

Thanks

What about sunflower seeds? Peices of cooked pasta (mine love that), cooked whole grain rice, carrot, are a few things that my guys like.

Most tiels seem to go crazy over Nutri-Berries.

Half of my tiels are picky, but they all love freeze-dried fruits, especially pineapple, raspberries and blueberries. You may be able to find them at a natural foods store, or online at http://www.justtomatoes.com/

The less-picky tiels are crazy about canary grass seed on the stalk. I've never seen it at a store but it's available online at http://www.drsfostersmith.com/produc...1&N=2003&Nty=1
I'm sure the pickier tiels would like it too, but it always disappears before they work up the nerve to try it.
