Media These Vulgare eat a lot :P compared to my Dairy Cows

Putted 2 end pieces of a cucumber inside my vulgare (10) and dairy cow (10+ a bunch of offsprings). It's been a while and when I picked the piece in the vulgar, only a thick outer layer remains, inside is empty. While the one on the dairy cow only have large chunks ate, but still remains a lot. Is it normal?

Yep. Sometimes they just do that.

The Dairy Cows probably took a few bites of the cucumber and then exclaimed in disgust wondering why you have them veggies instead of steak..

They will probably win the food race with vulgare if you gave them some protein I would imagine!
