Goal achieved🤪🤪.

Can hand feed Dusky easily now & finally Koda took some wombaroo from my hand, so goal 2 is getting them standing on me for a feed. Goal 3 is getting them to fly into my hand, only achieved this feat once with Heckle...

Dusky,

Koda,

good to see that you're not using regular minced meat (ground beef in the US)

90% lean beef mince thats been frozen for longer than 3 days to kill off any parasites. So i make up little golf ball sized bags to freeze and when thawed to use i add the insectivore mix, everyone loves the Wombaroo...

Congratulations! Nice shots! So, is wombaroo something like ground wombat or something?

Good one Jeff ... you raised a smile -
the meat for birds has added calcium and some other stuff so that the carnivore birds get a full dose of 'worms and grubs equivalent' foods.

Powdered insects, yummy. Yeah Wombaroo is just the brand name.

Got it. So, no wombats or kangaroos were harmed in making the product.

Very cool!

I've trained squirrels to take peanuts from my hand or even jump on the railing outside the back door to beg.

But I've never gotten even close to training a bird like that.
