im looking to train her with food and i just cant seem to find something that she ALWAYS wants. she doesnt really want to ever eat when shes out and you are dealing with her either. whats yours favorite foods?

Apples seem to do the trick for me. Try to make the treat small enough so they can go on to the next command quickly or they get very impatient.
Just a little tiny piece on the tip of your finger.

Mine start pacing up and down their perches when they see... peanut butter on toast! They are so fussy, the bread has to be toasted, or it gets thrown back at me in disgust. I also make special birdie muffins with pumpkin (with seed), cinnamon, oats, nuts and honey which they adore! On the odd occasion, I make pancakes for myself and boy do they throw a tantrum if they don't get some too. (They only get a fingernail size portion). They also love dried paw paw. (be careful with processed or dried fruits). These are my 'treat' foods.

Just keep trying different foods and see what she goes crazy for. It might take some time to figure out the 'it' food. Sometimes to get them to eat new foods, I eat it in front of them first and act like I reeeally love it. Maybe try this when shes out of the cage.

When i do training with Amazon i use sunflower seeds i take all these seeds out of his diet until training time then he gets them as a treat.

Passionfruit works with my IRN.

On the other hand millett worked well with my Cockatiel (just messier!).

Sunflower seeds, pear, apple, and banana.
