i think their use to eating dry seeds,what should i do
Seed junkies. Very common for this breed.
Reduce the seeds, add pellet food. Offer them whole food in the am and at dinner time. Natural for them to forage for food at these times.
They can be broken of their seed habit it just takes time and persistence.

I know this problem, but try to introduce them to other foods, like fruit and vegetable(but NEVER give them avocado, chocolate or salty stuff because it can seriously harm them). Try kiwis,(there is black seed in there. so they'll be likely to try it. Just slice it thinly and give it to them), watermelon(they love it :-) ), apples and oranges and salad(but make sure to ALWAYS wash the fruit/veggies thoroughly, to get rid of pesticides).
You could try to put fruit into the cage in the morning(instead of seed). If they're hungry, they'll probably eat it. But if they don't touch it after 3 hours, take it out, because bacteria will start to form. Also, give them back the seed if they don't touch the fruit, so they won't be too hungry.
It takes patience, so don't give up too early.
