Hey, Katie. You're welcome. I've been in a situation where I've been given advice by a vet that would have been good for any parrot type but my own. Smh. Only difference was, the guy I was dealing with, though considered one of the top 3 avian vets in the east coast, wasn't as diligent about at least checking into stuff he didn't know about. If there was something he didn't know, it just didn't exist. And had he been my first source on ekkies, given his credentials, I'd probably have taken his word as gospel. So I'm glad I was able to help you a bit in this situation.
Btw, since Jasper doesn't like broccoli you should just chop it up really fine so that he has trouble separating it from his preferred foods. That's how I do it. I do something similar with carrots, except I grate those. For some foods, you just can't take no for an answer. Stealth is the way! Lol! My ekkies probably wouldn't take even a nibble of their carrots or broccoli, otherwise.
And as for eggs, you might want to limit that to once or, at most, twice a month. Otherwise you run the risk of him developing arteriosclerosis. Only time I'd give him egg more frequently is during heavy molts.
