It sounds like you are doing a good job.
I haven't used accufeed, but I'm told that it is a good diet with the proper balance of protien, etc. I would recommend watching the ammount of nuts (due to fat content). I would also suggest alternating water with nectar. Mine don't drink much water, but they do drink it. Its kind of like letting your kids drink fruit juices and kool-aid all the time instead of water. Yes, they like the sweet drinks better, but that isn't always healthy for them.
