She is 10/11 weeks and it is her first fresh food she eats pellets, which she took to well just like the spinach as she has only ever seen it twice and today she ate it.

My question is will she accept other fresh foods and what may she like my other tiel-loved carrot too?

Will my tiel get used to that food as quick as she has done with the pellets and spinach

She has also learnt to fly to me her wings are semi clipped she can fly enough to come to me lol, and she has learnt to climb a ladder im trying to teach the wave what else can I teach her, she seems smart and is still young?

I doubt she will talk and I am not good at whistling lol

It's great that you have her on pellets and are introducing fresh vegetables. It's very important that you continue to offer such things to her.

For veggies, try broccoli, lettuce, zucchini, butternut and spaghetti squash, peppers (jalapeños, bell, red, serrano), cooked potatoes (sweet, baking, yukon gold), carrot, cucumber, kale, cooked eggplant, snap peas, tomatoes, corn, asparagus, cooked onion, etc.

For fruits, try oranges, bananas, apples, pears, rambutan, grapefruit, pomegranate, dragon fruit, etc.

She may adapt well. Birds have tastes and she may not like things that another tiel will like. You just have to try a bit of everything.

Always remember to avoid avocado, chocolate, caffiene, alcohol, uncooked onion, uncooked eggplant and rhubarb.

Try her with as many different fruits and veggies as you can, she is only young and seems willing to try new things. The more fruit and veg you can get her to eat the better, that way she is getting lots of the vitamins and minerals that she needs. As said always have the pellets available for her all the time.
Have you taught her to "step up" when you want her to step onto your finger. A good thing for her to do when you need her to go back in her cage or when she is on something she shouldn't be on, like the TV, my African Grey has a habit of landing on the TV and leaning over it to get a closer look.

some human beings omit the area of those diets (one or 2 respondents above me). they are purely meant for a jiffy era kick start to a nutrition plan this is meant for long term era. ingesting spinach for a week will no longer do any actual injury to you in case you could stay to tell the tale it effectively. this is going to be confusing for advantageous. I even have effectively performed the low carb nutrition plan for the "kick start up" era just to drop some speedy lbs in the previous migrating to a extra healthy nutrition plan. What you're doing is somewhat plenty the comparable element. i assume you could a minimum of prepare spinach employing different factors/spices. Like a salad dressing for a spinach salad. Garlic and slightly olive oil for sauteed spinach...etc. in case you could purely consume spinach without different factors, then this might fail relatively right now. in case you're able to do it, you will possibly lose 5 lbs or extra interior the week. you ought to additionally put in a plan for how you would be ingesting on day 8.

Just keep trying different things, but always have the pellets so Charlile has something to eat at other times too. Birds eat more than we think they do, and they must since they have such high energy needs.
