Sugar cubes for dextrose?

No dextrose is absorbed almost instantly into the bloodstream and straight to the muscles. Sugar has to be processed in the body longer which results in stored body fat, same as humans.

That is not entirely correct. Aseels most certainly have a long historical record and figure prominently in many meat, ornamental and even some current game breeds but they are not likely the ancestor of what is known as English, Irish and Spanish games that dominate the makeup of current American Games. The DNA data is not yet out there but I am betting it will be found the European / Bankovid Games are at least as old as the Aseel lines. The problem is the keepers of the former either did not keep as many records or records were lost during the multiple social upheavals that occurred over the millenia. Key to this logic for me is the Aseel type games are a lot more different from the ancestral jungle fowls upon which all chickens are based than the Bankovid games are. It is not likely that something as odd as an Aseel could be selected from wild jungle then selected back towards they Bankovid type.

I liked this so much I had to come read it again, I like that word "dominate"...LOL
