Lovebirds with fruit and veg?

hi all,

I'm new to this site and i look forward to chatting.
I have been reading up and studying on the web about fischer's lovebirds and i have now got a young pair, one the hen turquoise or colbalt blue the other the cock nearly all white with a slight blue hint, this was a private sale and the birds was ready and waiting to leave if i wanted them. I never got to see the other birds as there was a large dog in the garden,
Anyhow i have read and talked to some people about feeding veg and fruit, i went into a pet shop today that sells aviary birds and he says that these birds don't eat fruit and veg just seed, which i find hard to believe. they are on seed with a small amount of pellet at the minute as they have only just started the pellet, they don't seem to touch the veggies etc and would like some helpful first hand advise please.
thanks

Re: Lovebirds with fruit and veg?

If you are swapping them over to pellets you will probably find they will start to eat the fruit and veg once you have cut the seed out
