Try adding some plain canned pumpkin (the kind without spices added) and/or some rice to her diet. It works with Tansy pretty well, but she doesn't really like the rice. If you cook the rice with some chicken stock they do eat it better. I usually just mix it in with her normal food. And watch her

One of my chis is the same way; one thing that helped us, is instead of telling her "no" for whatever she's doing, we took an empty peanuts can and washed it out and put pennies in it; we just shake it when she's misbehaving and she think's it the can and not us yelling at her. Helen - Origin
