you can pretty well feed them anything with standard common sense
Dont feeed avacado, I heard maybe tomatos are bad too... but they would love bannanas, apples ( Just not the apple seeds they will kill) , pears, peaches grapes, pretty well anything... and vegitables they love.. my birds LOVE spinnach hanging from the bars... just use your imagination... they may not enjoy it at first... mine didnt for a long time now they indulge.. but not in anything.. I think the key is to make sure it is in there every single day but I am a single guy on hiw own so I dont always have all the veggies hehe but thats probably why they dont eat as much as other birds
Good Luck!
ALso there is TONNES of pages on the net about recipes and stuff for them...
