Default Update on my TAG

My baby TAG is doing very well and has started perching when s/he sleeps. Climbs around the cage comfortably and I have resorted to some nights feeding the baby piece by pice of fruit or vegetable. S/He seems to be a fussy eater too and snubs me if s/he doesn't like it. I had baby sexed and the results are in it's a boy. He seems very settled and happy. Still a lovable baby and has no name as yet. I will keep trying.

They do tend to be picky eaters. It takes a while to find the right combination of food.
The name is all in the personality.

Feed food higher in fiber during the day and higher in protein before bedtime. That's the way they prefer to eat and the reason why he is not willing. Fruits and veggies are digested too rapidly and they baby will be hungry halfway through the night, protein takes longer to be digested.

My TAG use to be picky but learned she can't do that with me. lol Now she wants a bite of everything she see's me eat. I took a while but she got the idea that passing up food won't work cause I just keep offering it too her again and again.

Thanks for the advice. I will keep trying. Go figure he already has me wrapped around his little paw.
