Hi Diane!

Speical is a -very picky- eater. Can you say *F*I*N*I*C*K*Y*? ;-) She
was very suspicious of oil at first too. I had to start out with less
than a tablespoon, -thouroughly mixed- into her feed. And I gradually
worked her up. She now gets 2 Cups per day, and loves it. She turns her
nose up at feed without it. Go figure.... She gets the rice bran too,
about 2 cups per day.

Also, IMHO 6 cups of oil is too much. Just my opinion.
