Glad she ate for ya! I know it's a huge stress release. As far as why she change her taste, who knows. Bottom line is she ate for you. Congrats my man

The chicks are a little small, as they are smaller than a small rat, but I have quail on the way, so I'll be trying those.

Sounds like she's turning pretty "human" to me? Now & then, I just gotta have Cornish game hens. :D

Ate the quail!

She's been eating very well (medium quail).

And I had her probed at the vet today and shes a girl! I am thinking about buying a male and trying my hand at breeding.
