If they pass wind . . . I've never been aware of it. Can you imagine how tiny it would be? LOL! As for treats our goos love sunflower seeds in shells, pecans, walnuts, peanuts, dried tomato, raw (hard) pasta, dandelion flowers leaves and stems, oats, raspberry leaves, rose petals, and a few other things that I can't think of at the moment. We give some every two-three days, but always in moderate amounts, especially for the seeds, nuts, and oats. They don't ask until they are addicted, which usually looks like pleading eyes the moment they see you. Addiction can happen immediately upon first tasting, or as a developed taste. If it is REALLY addictive, they will get really pushy and try to keep their cage mates away from it.

Uh oh, mine must be addicted to everything they will fight for any little bits. They have just learnt to share nuggets but treats, new dandelion mix with nice bits of puffed wheat etc, oohhh and it comes with a tiny bit of dried beetroot which little blue loves. I give them apple wood sticks which I found in the local pet store, but again they have to have one each otherwise they go nuts. They like rose petals, dandelion leaves, nettles and blackberry leaves all of which I have in my garden (which is handy). They do prefer them all dried but will have a small bit of fresh stuff sometimes. Yesterday they tried sweet potato peelings that i dried out over night - yum ;D
