Winnie Lee little miss picky pants

[bednarkim77]

I am pretty sure I am being a paranoid mom here but would love some feedback, I have posted a few times about Winnie Lee being picky and I just want to make sure the diet I have her on is good for her.

Morning 1 Henry's picky block and veggies

Afternoon snack is a inch piece of Henry's peanut stick with a dab of peanut butter reason for pbutter is I mix Henry's vitamins in about 1/8 tsp or less of peanut butter and spread it on the peanut stick .It's the only way I can get her to eat vitamins.

Dinner more veggies and a Henry's wild block.


If she does good at eating her veggies that day she will get a nut after her dinner. Either a almond, walnut or peanut in the shell.

Only other time she gets a nut is once a week she gets a walnut if she lets me trim her nails.

I am worried about her getting enough vitamin D because she doesn't really eat her veggies and I am thinking of in the morning when she is hungry giving her veggies first.

The only kind of veggies she will even take a bite of are sweet potato, fresh or frozen green beans. Sugar snap peas, frozen peas, and very rarely mushrooms.

I am also going to try to dehydrate some veggies and make veggie chips for her.

She also has plenty to chew on all the time she has rocks,sticks,lava rock, Wood toys and once a month I buy a whole coconut and give it to her to try to chew a hole in once she gets through the shell I take the coconut away and take out the meat and give the shell back to her.

She also shares a room with me and has a huge and I mean huge cage about 6 ft tall 4 ft wide 2 ft deep and she is out of the cage and hanging out with me on and off all day long she gets about 8 hours of out of cage time a day.

And has plenty of toys and things to climb on in our room.

Plus she gets her water bottle refilled with fresh ever day.

So that's about it . Any advice on how I can get more vitamin D in her? She will not go outdoors and if I open the window and have a screen she freaks out and hides if she sees another squirrel, Bird,bug, leaves anything. She is a weirdo and scared of anything outside or if a moth comes in she makes that crying sound.

I am not a expert, ...... eating her henrys is the most important part of the diet. Greens are next. Limited fruits. It looks to me like her diet is on track. She looks healthy in her pictures. Try for veggie variety... artichoke leaves, I cut the points off first. Tornless cactus pads, prickly pears, papaya has good calcium for a fruit. Acorn and butternut squash. Avacados, Cherry tomatoes and yellow tomatoes.
Watermelon is good for hydration. These are some of the things my boy likes.
