:Your aurics eat whole fruits from fingers? Now thats impressive, whats your trick =)
:-Mike

It's really only one of them, and only with grape chunks. The other aurics will eat some if they're in the right mood, and I threaten to cry and feel really hurt if they don't humour me. :)

Oscar will eat chunks of anything from my fingers, even the fingers. He does however prefer very well blended fruit over chunky style but he's not that fussy.

Sometimes there are a few chunks left in the fruit when I finish runing it through the blender, or there might add some that I've just mashed with a fork if there was some really nifty tropical fruit on sale. The cresties only seem to eat the very runny stuff, very slightly lumpy only. Aurics will eat most chunks as long as they're soft enough. Oscar just eats. When I noticed they would eat chunks, I started offering some by hand, and that's how I found out about the size of teeth they have.
