The dandelions aren't blooming here anymore, but I have been picking the leaves as well as clover flowers. I've also cut up squash and carrots and tried some frozen veggie mix (green beans, peas, corn, etc). She won't taste anything if I offer it by hand, though she has no problem letting me come up and touch food to her nose. I've left all of the aforementioned items in with her assuming she'd eat when I wasn't around, but I don't see any evidence of that happening yet.



>>Hi Kevin,

>>Yes, many of us check this forum even if we don't always post.

>>What specific things are you feeding her? I have found that chucks cannot resist edible flowers. Do you have hibiscus plants or dandelions in your yard that have not been fertilized or sprayed? The dandelions especially will get them to eat. You can hand feed those to help her bond with you and you can chop them up and mix them with her salad.

>>I also find that my chucks love squash, among other veggies. I steam the squash just enough to soften it and chop in pretty small for smaller chucks and they go crazy for it.
