I had a male adopt me last year. I feed chicken pellets, cat food(dry), grapes, broccoli, cauliflower, raw peanuts, sunflower seeds(shelled and in shell), apple, tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, cabbage, banana,  a little bread when I want him eat out of my hand and to follow me  to his pen and OMG today I had a flour tortilla and he went beserk after it. Tearing in to little pieces was not an option.... He wanted it NOW. Maybe he came from a mexican farm. LOL

He's interesting to look at- some hybrid ancestry- looks like perhaps spicifer in the genetics.

I am wondering what color he would be considered and his possible age?  His tail is not  that long, and he honks when he can't see the chickens.

 

He does like bread for sure, and sat nearby making 'mewling' noises while I trimmed the horses' hooves.  He wasn't  impressed with cat food and flung the cut shrimp in the air.  Chickens ate it though.  lol.png
