I'm saying if a bird eats all of it's feed except the whole corn and it's a healthy bird and I throw more feed and it eats but stil l picks around the whole corn I will cull it. My friend had laying birds that wouldn't eat whole corn but would eat the sunflower seeds, wheat, oats, and cracked corn. Spoiled on a filler if you ask me

I wouldn't read too much into that. Corn is more of a "filler", making up about half of some feeds. It is a good part of the diet, but relatively low in protein at about 7.5%.

Your friends birds were probably fed way too much scratch.

I’ve never seen a bird not eat whole corn except in summer when they barely want anything on real hot days.
