Mitzi is addicted to them. She was in such a mood today because she decided she hadn't had enough. She was emptying the rest of the food out of the bowls. She refused to come on my hand and she was moving her beak in the way she does when she wants them. She even turned down a piece of biscuit that she usually loves. When I finally relented and got the bag she was so excited.

That is sooo funny. Like she's getting pickier with age.
Maui will often toss her favorite treats if given to her by strangers or even my kids (after they've been to rambunctious around her). But after they walk away, she'll climb down and eat them.

She is funny when she gets in a mood because she wants Nutriberries. She does this pretend biting thing where she will fling her head around if I put my hand near, as if she is going to bite me but she never even makes contact, it is as if she is determined to let me know she isn't going to come on my hand but she doesn't actually want to bite me.
Then later when she has got her way she sits saying: "I love yoooo-ooo" with the you being drawn out and two tone.

I bought one type of nutriberries, I just grabbed a bag, but they are for "older birds". Ash just threw them out. Since she refused to eat them I threw them in the yard for the squirrels, even the squirrels didn't want them.

I get the four different bags of El Paso, Garden Veggie, Sunny Orchard and Tropical Fruit, for large parrots such as African Greys, Amazons, Cockatoos, Macaws etc. She likes them all equally.
I have just looked on the Lafeber site and seen the bags for Senior Birds, I hadn't heard of them before. They have a much higher percentage of pellets in them than the others so that might affect how they taste.
Mitzi must have had her first Nutriberry over 20 years ago and as soon as I gave her one she just devoured it straightaway. It was one of the Tropical Fruit ones.
