Feeding The Blotchies and One Other

Postby El Lobo » Sat Feb 18, 2012 5:43 pm

Yet another thread about feeding.

A couple of pics from this morning which may be of interest to some newer members. Their last meal was scrambled egg with chopped greens so today it is fresh drier food without any puree or gravy. Calcium with D3 was added after the pics were taken.

For contrast, this was the Eclectus parrot's meal.

Those blotchie meals look like beef tataki (roo tataki, I suppose). Looks tasty!

Your meals always look great and incredibly healthy. Nice for people to see different options.

I didn't name him. That's the name he had when I got him. I am truly a cold hearted monster like your mother told you. :hehe:

Do you add calcium powder to those meals?

Reptical with D3 for the blotchies. Mineral supplements for the parrot.
