Do you love your bird enough to 'taste test' his food? LOL!

[MomtoPercy]

I made Percy some treaty biscuits tonight - mashed banana & pumpkin, dash of honey, egg, pumpkin, flax, sesame and sunflower seeds, nuts, chopped dried banana pieces, cinnamon spice ....and chopped pellets. Yes, I tasted them when they came out the oven! Not bad at all...except for when you bite into a pellet! LOL! :32:

 

[DallyTsuka]

yep, i was curious and tried some yogurt dipped treats from the petstore lol werent TOO bad. the pellet part in them had a grainy aftertaste that wasnt so pleasant lol

and ive eaten the birds pellets before to try to convince them to eat them. YUCK! lol

 

[Boysmom]

Yes I have tasted the pellets and they are certainly yucky. It was like eating cardboard with a grainy texture. That is the reason my Fids eat fresh foods 98% of the time.

 

[MomtoPercy]

Percy doesn't love his pellets, that's for sure But I know its good for him so it is always on offer. He usually nibbles a few before bedtime for some reason. Maybe because I take away his fresh food dinner before I start the bedtime routine.

 

[Kalidasa]

Absolutely everything. I feel like one of those tasters for spoiled royalty. On the upside, I eat much healthier..pellets and all lol!

 

[strudel]

Everything except the pellets sounds good. I'd eat that, for sure.

 

[mrgoogls]

i have tried cooper's pellets. the taste wasnt horrible(think what you want about me ), but it was very dry and grainy like eating sand sort of. and obviously i have tried all the fruits and veggies he eats! we both eat them as a chop them up for him!

 

[Kinny]

Definitely. I even taste each new bag of Vetafarm Pellets. They must taste good -_- I admit, i like the taste of the nectar pellets

 

[Kiwibird]

Yup. We put Kiwi on a pellet-based diet (at the recommendation of the vet) when we first got him, which he refused to eat. After about a week of him refusing the pellets, I tried one and found out in a hurry why he wouldn't touch them! They taste like a mix if stale corn chips and cardboard. He gets seed and fruit in the morning and a cooked grains mix with veggies at night.

I have tried the grains mix, and it isn't bad (just bland). He doesn't really eat a lot of the seed, but I want him to at least have something non-perishable to snack on that doesn't taste disgusting. He is a ravenous monster when it comes to his fruit and veg (I lovingly call him the produce destroyer lol), and he will take anything you'll give him off the table.

 

[drlisaort]

I do, unless it's with crushed egg shell...not too tasty...

LOL! I've tried that. Disgusting sensation on the teeth, eh?

 

[kika95]

Yup tried some mash today mot to bad lol

 

[Christinenc2000]

Try some Chop in a burger Yum Yum

 

[Solo]

I try all my pets food before they get..with the exception of the raw meat I feed my dog, though it is human grade and I have cooked it and tried it.

 

[Doublete]

I tried my last sweet potato/banana mash bread that ended up like a cake because it looked delish. I wasn't sweet and wasn't my cup of tea. But it is Chiquis. So I'll have to remember how I made it once I run out.
I am not a veggie or a fruit fan. I eat a few of various ones, that's it. So their chop would NEVER appeal to me. Lol.

 

[dogslovepeace]

I have been trying new veggies thanks to Pepper. I'm buying them - I may as well as try them. So far I realized I like sprouts.
