I'd be interested to try chicks and quail with her but I don't have a source near me that I'm aware of at the moment. I could order them but I don't have the freezer space to make an online order worth the shipping. I'm sure she'd go bonkers for something with feathers haha! Pretty sure that Kalatoa island is a migratory bird nesting site, so I'd guess her brain is wired for birds when they're available. Really her brain is just wired to eat anything that moves any time she can. Would be nice to make her bowels less stinky, they can be pretty rank sometimes lol like the several ounces of piss I had to clean out of the carpet earlier.

Haha i'm still blessed with Caesar not being a pisser on me. What he seems to love to do is curl up between my arm and belly and just go to sleep there. And yeah his poop smelled like death when I got him but since the poultry, his poop doesn't really smell that bad anymore. I mean its poop and doesn't smell like roses but also doesn't smell strong enough to peel paint anymore. The coco husk might be helping too. I actually have a hard time finding piss now with the coco husk. I mostly just have to clean up an area around any white urate I find. I might start changing his substrate every 1.5 months and just switch to that Plant It/Grow It stuff to help save cash. And also, Caesar doesn't seem to push too much anymore either. I mean he never was a big pusher but he would push some when hungry. Now he just camps the 'food door' and if nothing comes quick enough, he will sit with his head on the litter dam looking out haha.

I bet Phyllis would go bonkers for feathers. I know Vicky and Caesar love it. Rosey is just painful to watch her eat poultry so I probably will just stick to rabbits and rats for her and maybe small chicks and quails until she figures how to eat them efficiently. Caesar and Vicky are pro at it.
