I have raised three roos so far, and I've maintained a very friendly relationship with all of them. When I let my flocks out to forage, my roos sometimes bring me stuff and tidbit with it to get my attention - but they don't bring me food like they do for the hens; it's other stuff they find. They've clearly picked up on the fact that I pick up any junk that erodes out of the soil around the house. The pic below is stuff they've brought that I saved, grouped by which roo brought it to me.
Do other folks' roos do this?
- Junior, top right cluster: things that aren't rocks even if some of them look like it. The PVC one is obvious, but the others are weird bits of synthetic stuff. Junior also brings me a lot of hazardous/sharp stuff that I don't save (rusty nails, broken glass, etc).
- Vanilla Bean, bottom: exclusively brings me white plastic pellets.
- Monster, top left: I didn't think he was going to join the club, but then out of the blue he brought me a tiny Brachiopod fossil last week.
