hi and welcome.
IRNs are mainly fruit and vege eaters mostly. mine goes bonkers for fresh apple slices. I generally use seeds as a treat food. I think the most important part of food is having to forage for it as this also stimulates the birds mind. pellets seem to be a good side snack too but best to Just experiment and see what your little one prefers. Just avoid avocados and the seeds in apples and other fruit as these can be toxic. most importantly is to Just keep food fun.
good luck.
