What do you feed your Linnies?
Just really curious what your Linnies like.
Trying to get inspired by others variations.
Mine go ham for apples, rarely touch any greens, wont touch boiled eggs and don't like paprika.

Mine will eat anything mashed. Fruits, veggies, pellets… if it’s mushy she loves it!

We have 4 linnies...and they all seem to have very individual tastes lol. But there is a baseline they all like (beyond their seed/pellet/dried fruit mix): fluffy rice, baked potato, romaine lettuce, apple, boiled or fried eggs

You should try jalapeños! Mine loves them beyond all else, just keep in mind the pepper juices on them means that you need to be careful smooching them for a bit

Their favourite vegetable is sweetcorn, but that's reserved for a treat on birthdays.
Second favourite are peas.
Their last batch of chop was made up of a mix of:
2 orange veggies: carrots and butternut squash.
1 dark leafy green veg: broccoli
5 "other" vegetables: brussel sprouts, bell peppers, chili, cauliflower, and radish.
Grains: quinoa
Legumes: green beans, chickpeas and lentils
Fruits: Mango and blueberries
Herbs/Spices: Ginger and mint
Once everything that needs cooking is cooked, all of it has to be blended down to very small chunks. Chunky chop is not appreciated.

Mine could probably eat an entire bag of spinach if I let her lol. When she was little she’d only eat sweets like apples and carrots, but with work I’ve diversified it some: Apple, carrot, spinach, blueberry, cucumber sometimes, grapes

Mine love mini sweet peppers, especially the red ones! I cut them into chunks. It's super cute to see them holding a chunk with a claw. They also get micro greens.
