picky eaters?

[candywishes]

When i first got the trio they tried almost everything but lately they wont touch certain veg, for example... carrots nearly always go untouched, same goes for peppers, and cabbage too. They like spring greens, tomatoes, celery, apple and cucumber - the cucumber is the very first thing to go, quickly followed by the celery - sometimes both at the same time!
Has anyone else got fussy piggy eaters? suggestions?

can you guys give me a few examples of your veggy menues?

Mine wont eat cabbage either.

I give mine spring greens, spinach (sometimes it's a BIG hit), cattors but the carrot leaves are a real favourite so if you see them like that get them and give them the leaves and you eat the carrots, herbs - Parsley, Basil, Oregano and mint (mint they weren't a lover of to start with but I persevered as it's good for digestion), cucumber, cherry tomatoes but they wont eat big ones (!), halved grapes, apples, pear (very occassionally), peppers, celery

I think that's about it.

Yours sound okay - maybe leave the ones they don't eat for a while and try again in a few weeks?

well thing is they USED to eat cabbage, carrots and peppers! They must have gone off it! They prefer to just eat their favourites! Just wanted to give them some more variety Thanks

oh and they wont TOUCH pear!

Mine seem to get bored of many things if they have them too often. Carrot, for example is fallen upon with glad cries if it hasn't been seen for a few days. If they had it yesterday, it gets chewed a bit, spat out and sat on!

Cucumber is a daily favourite. They always love romaine lettuse and cabbage too. They get bell peppers every day (yellow is favourite), and sugar snap peas. It's all gone when I get home but I think they do leave some of it till they're really hungry.
