Chrysoberyl:

- dislikes anything that doesn't have sweet on it.
- occasionally eats a few nibbles of solid food, but prefers being bottle-fed bottle fed
- is good at waiting, but will become pouty after a certain amount of time.
- eats slowly to avoid getting it all over the place
Beryl
- likes salty stuff; anything she eats must be salted.
- bitter things are a no-no.
- likes being hand-fed on occasion, but mainly feeds from bowls
- is faily patient, but will start whining after a certain amount of time.
- tries to make it last, but still ends up finishing her food quicker than she wants to.
Tourmaline
- is a junk food junkie (courtesy of Ameythyst)
- most organic foods are her kryptonite
- hand feeding is risky; she snaps like a crocodile.
- doesn't enjoy waiting, and will climb whoever is preparing her food to check the progress.
- scarfs everything down with the mannerisms of a boar
Jade
- prefers nutrients from her carrier, but also likes earth's naturally created produce.
- doesn't trust anything packaged, and must sniff it in order to determine whether or not to eat it
- likes to be bottle-fed, but is also fond of spoon feeding and hand feeding. Dislikes bowl feeding due to tourmaline's rough-housing
- is very patient, and will occasionally watch the food be prepared
Aventurine
- see-food diet
- eats pretty much anything presented to her as food
- any means of feeding is fine, as long as she gets her food. Will most likely eat the silverware or dishes
- waiting has no meaning to her, will thump her feet and whine until she's given something to eat.
