They do sit at the pellet bowl and eat pellets several times a day, so I know they like it, but once the seeds and pellets are mixed, they won't touch the pellets. I have to keep them in seperate bowls. I only mixed them when I first introduced the tiels to pellets. Once they got to know pellets are FOOD, I started putting seeds and pellets in seperate bowls. It works best that way for my birds.
Hmm, that makes a lot of sense. I was mixing them. I think my cages need more bowls! Seed, water, pellets, & grit
