What can a rooster eat from my kitchen?
Our take
## So, Your Rooster's Become a Houseguest? What Can He Eat From Your Kitchen? A rogue rooster staking out territory in your HOA? We get it – it’s cluck-tasticly weird! You're likely wondering if you can offer a little kitchen kindness to your feathered friend without a trip to the feed store. While bugs and worms are a rooster's staple diet, supplementing with safe kitchen scraps is perfectly fine. Think leftover cooked veggies (no onions or avocados!), grains like rice or oats, and even bits of fruit. Just avoid salty, sugary, or processed foods. He's probably quite the adventurer, as showcased in our recent piece, "A handsome prince I met out and about yesterday," where a reader shared a similar unexpected encounter!
For the past month or so, I’ve had a rooster hanging out around my house all day everyday. I know he belongs to someone but it’s extremely odd because I live at the end of a culdesac in a big HOA subdivision that definitely doesn’t allow these types of animals. My neighbors have posted on all the social media sites asking who he belongs to but no one will claim him. I’m sure he’s surviving off of bugs and worms but at this point I’d like to leave a little food out for him without having to actually go and buy chicken feed. Does anyone have suggestions for foods I might have that he would eat and are safe? Thanks
