naw just kidding! He will once in a while take a few rocks
and just swallow them, poops them out too, no big deal.
White ones, who knows maybe he'll think he's gonna get
lucky and it'll be that coveted bird droppings!!! lol!
When he cruises the yard or road, he's drawn to white things,
same reason, maybe just maybe it'll be bird poo!
He usually ignores them as you can see he has a ton of
rocks right around his house for a "ramp", drainage away
from the house and prevents ants. Actually his house
sits on bricks also.

When I would get the new bags of rocks, he always ate
a few of those, then got bored with them. The calcium
thing is a good idea, he likes it too.
