I've spoiled my girl and it's getting a little out of hand. In the beginning, she wasn't much of a picky eater but now she only wants flax seeds and sunflower seeds, barely touches anything else in her bowl.

She also hoards everywhere under the bedding. I understand hoarding is normal but its a crazy amount that goes uneaten and needs to be thrown out because it's either pee'd on or old.

For the moment I've taken her food bowl out and spread her food across the cage so that she can forage for it. I feed her a mix of tropical carnivals gourmet food and farm fresh fixings + added flax seeds. (Food links below)

What would be the best way for me to get her to eat all of her food? and if you have any recommendations to add to her diet, things I should take out of her diet that would be much appreciated >v<)/

Also Quick Note: I want to add millet,oat and wheat spray in her cage to forage from and if possible timothy hay? Would those be safe for her diet?
