Jogging around the block
So I am currently (temporarily) in the care of my grandma's 18 year old cockatiel that she's been neglecting for the last 18 years. She's only been fed seeds for her whole life.
I want to get her eating pellets (gonna start on Zupreem natural and we can move onto something else if we have to) someone said she shouldn't be taken 100% off seed. Getting her to eat veggies or anything that isn't seeds can be a bit of a struggle but we're gonna keep trying. I've also ordered her some senior nutriberries that I hope she will enjoy them. I also want her to get a blood test to check her organ functions because I worry about the damage her diet has done to her body.
How's this plan sound? Is there anything in particular I could be doing for her I am not doing so far? They (there is a 10-12 year old conure too) are at my house for now. I'm going to be probably moving in with my grandma just to care for them because I know she will try and undo all the progress I've made with these little guys.
