Hi Shirley, HANZAB says that wild Bazas eat rainforest fruits (figs, and Charcoal Tree or Pigeon Wood Trema orientalis in N. Guinea), which I repeated in my field guide. Captive Bazas have also been known to eat lettuce leaves (also in HANZAB). I don’t know any more than that.

I’ve come across a few references to bazas sometimes eating fruit, but no further details. Has anyone here seen them eat fruit or know what kind of fruit they go for, or whether it is in particular seasons ? (low in normal prey? breeding season?)
