| Sometimes they eat grass when they don't feel well because it will make them throw up. Mine chew on grass sometimes just because it's there and poking up at them.

| Two of Gracie's favorite things to do outside...eat grass and find wood to chew. I'm convinced there is a goat and a beaver somewhere in her lineage. She has always been a grass eater, so I don't know how much the 'they eat grass when they feel sick' would apply to her. Fortunately it doesn't harm them...not like the wood chewing Hope your guy is feeling better soon.

| Same for my Littlest Mac - he's healthy as an ox but enjoys eating grass once in a while, along with wood and... ants! ewwwwwwwwwwww but he's never thrown up from those. (touch wood) Glad to hear your wee one is feeling better.
