The sooner the better on introducing new foods. The more variety of shape, texture, and taste they get used to now the easier it will be in the future. Add some shredded carrot or bits of greens etc in with their seeds, add a bit of pellets in as wel and they should start picking at the new things as well. We don't breed birds but have had babies here for different reasons in the past and we always try to wean them into as many differet good foods as possible. When they are weaned onto only one item or just a couple it makes it that much harder to switch them later. As long as the items you are wanting to add in are healthy (which the ones you mentioned are) then start adding them now.

That's great they are flying. I love to see their first clumsy flights or more like clumsy landings LOL! The last baby I had hear was Gizmo the goffins and she was so funny when she learned to fly she would want me to take her and would end up crashing into my head instead Or else she would try to turn in midair and it was like she would forget what she was doing and crash into the sofa or recliner LOL! Lots of fun and good wishes for you babies.
