They are opportunistic carnivores, and in time of famine will eat things they normally wouldn't to get something in their stomachs. However, in a natural environment corn is something they would never eat. There is no famine here so i feed the most ideal diet i can provide. I also believe carbs aren't needed and carb heavy foods put stress on the pancreas. I don't believe in feeding things that aren't needed, what corn provides is pretty much insignificant. I think we'll just have to agree to disagree
