i first tried mazuri after some posters here recommended it, and my redfoot went absolutely bonkers for it. it became his absolute favorite food.

this got to be more of a problem, though, as he'd eat his mazuri, and leave the rest of his food behind. if i only gave him mazuri with his salads every other day or so, he'd wait til a "mazuri day" and pig out.

i therefore quit feeding it to him after the last of it ran out in the interest of him getting a more varied diet. he "pouted" (quit eating) for a couple of days, and then he went back to business as usual, eating his salads, when i suppose he got hungry enough.
