Orange Food Ideas for Little Pheobe

[DerangedLava]

Hi There

Little Pheobe is almost five months old now and I finally got her to start eating her veggies! I'd been trying everything and what finally worked was cutting them down to look like little worms, covering them with her calcium powder, and giving it along with real mealworms. (She loves mealworms, she's never been impacted or had a single problem digesting them, only gets them as a treat every now and then because they're her favorite)

Anyways, it worked, and I've noticed in the last few weeks feeding her veggies that she has a major color preference, orange. She won't touch anything that's not orange. She loves her mango, orange peppers, and carrots, but I intend to stop feeding her carrots because it seems they always come out undigested. I'd love any more orange food suggestions, I want her to get a good variety.

Thank you!

Try some yellow squash and see if that will work --- what staple feeder do you have her on? Crickets or dubia roaches?
