LOL Rebecca that sounds like what mine did when I interduced sunflower seeds for the first time. Everyone was like I ain't eating that. Now I take seeds out and they fight of them.
You'll never know how strong your heart is till you learn how to forgive the one who broke it.

when they were around 10 - 12 weeks I brought them some yummy grubs to enjoy. everyone gathered round when I called 'treats' to them. when I set down the small bowl of grubs you could almost here them saying to each other:
'what's this stuff?'
'I don't know. something that's probably good for you..'
'I'm not eating that stuff. You eat it.'
'I know let's get Mikey to eat it!'
'Hey Mikey!'
Only one chick yummed up the grubs while the rest stood around gaping ('eeeewwwwww').
the next week I brought some more grubs and everyone was scrambling over each other for the treats. the grub bowl was emptied in no time.
go figure.
