It is a hand feeding pellet - made of formula! You soak them in water that is about 107 degrees for about 1 minute. They start to soften, but do not get totally mushy. You feed them, one at a time, to the hand feeding bird. They pump like normal and swallow them. It is amazing! We are using them mostly with the cockatoos - rosebreasted specifically - since they are such horrible feeders as they get older. They just love them!

Here is some info: Scenic Bird Food Feeding Directions

LOL. We can arrange that!

Sorry Danielle - we kinda hijacked your post!!! Getting back on topic, I wonder if you can talk to your breeder and see if she uses these. Maybe then you can bring your baby home sooner?

Smile Re: Argh, this wait is depressing me!

Thanks for the encouraging words everyone. It does make me feel good that she has the babys best interest at heart. She is a great breeder with a fabulous reputation. I was just shocked that he was still on 5 feedings at 9 weeks. But after listening to you all, I feel much better. Whats a few more months when I have a lifetime with him right? Thanks again all!

I know the wait stinks! But it sounds like you have a very good breeder on your hands and that is definitley something to be thankful for! And you are exactly right, I believe it was Bee who told me when I was waiting for Scarlett- what is a few more weeks in 50 years? And it is so true, he will be home before you know it!

Just use the extra time to stock up on supplies and toys. Just THINK what you can stockpile in a few extra weeks? *grins*
