not eating as much

[mvd12720]

well powder is starting to get the gang of flying and starting to fly a few feet at a time. now but i know that in the morning he will eat very little ( i try to give formula and( veggies and fruit in the cage) then i have been trying to give a little more in the after noon then he usually eats good at night about 7 pm for his night time feeding. ( that is what time he wants to eat) but the past few night he has not been eating very much at night either should i be concerned?
and the pst few day he has not been eating his veggies like he did last week

its perfectly normal for them to cut down on the food when they start to fledge. start cutting out the formula and start giving more normal foods.

I think you should closely watch it's weight, than you know for sure. In the weaning process, it's acceptable if they lose 10% of their body weight. If they loose more, it might be a good idea to go to a vet.

powde is now eating better but it is hardto get him/her to eat the seed and pellets but powder will eat veggies without a problum now is there a type of pellet that is better for them??

The type of pellet is a hard question for me.. I give them a dutch pellet, called ecobird. That seems to work fine here, their feathers look nice and shiny. I hear a lot that Harrisons is pellet, but I don't know if that's the best, and I find it pretty expensive. Maybe someone in your country can give a better answer, cause I don't know which ones are offered there. Here you can buy Nutribird in the pet stores, but a lot of people I know are not content with that pellet. Kaytee seems to have a lot of food coloration in it, and there was another ingredient not so healthy, I can find out which one, of you want to. And another one I've heard about is Scenic, everybody seems to be content with that one.
