Hello EVERYONE,

To start off I currently have four suggies two boys and two girls! My boys are Nerf and Blue My girls are Fara and Zoey !!!! My concern at hand is my boys absolutely will not touch their veggies and/or fruit UNLESS it's in a puree form... Its works fine because I will blend up fruits and veggies and mix it with their HPW for dinner time .. SO they do get their fruits and veggies ....My question is .. Is it okay that they only eat their fruits and veggies pureed? .. They do chomp away at yogurt drops anytime lol They are both healthy and nothing is wrong with their teeth or mouth ... Does anyone else have suggies this picky ?

I have 5 adults that will only eat fruit and veg blended. I've fed them a blended diet for almost 3 years now. I also feed my other gliders the same diet just for convenience and they clear their bowls every night :)

my suggies are all the same.

all 5 of my suggies will never touch their fruit and veg. the older two used to but recently stopped...i think it was because i mixed in a fruit they dont like. but i'm not sure

i used to blend their fruit and veg but thought that since they were older that i'd start giving it to them chopped, they went well with this until recently and now none of them touch it.

i might have to try mixing it in with the OHPW to see if that helps

tonight i put a little honey on top of the fruit and veg to see if that helps any. (just a tiny bit)

I haven't tried chopped yet .. Thinking I will try that as well as the honey idea :) just to see but when I purée their dinner I do mix it wth the ohpw and they devour it (given some days there's a bit left) but overall they eat it up ! My girls on the other hand love apples and cantaloupes lol
