Default Re: Suitable treats for a 10 week old robo

most of mine like natural treats just as much as the processed ones. My robo particularly likes sunflower seeds, monkey nuts and dried mealworms. He loves mealworms! With the monkey nuts, I just crack them a little before I let him have it as he struggles a little otherwise to get into it. Sunflower seeds, monkey nuts and mealworms you can usually find in garden centres with the bird food (or at least that's where I get mine). I think the mealworms you buy for garden birds are fried so you might just need to be careful you don't overfeed those. Burgess dwarf hamster harvest has mealworms and sunflower seeds in the mix so you could pick those out to feed to Swift while find out what/if she likes before you buy bags of either. Hector also really likes millet spray which you can pick up in the pet bird department. Other than that I'd say find out what veg she likes as that always goes down well. Hector's favourite is red pepper.
