Mine like cooked sweetcorn better than raw. When i was freezing the sweetcorn I'd grown a few weeks ago the got all the cobs after I'd stripped the kernels off. They love a big raw marrow cut in half down the length and they pick out the seeds and eat the raw flesh. If i purree soft fruit and sieve to take out the seeds they get those and love them. I wouldn't think that cooked greens would block a gizzard but long course grass will roll into a ball and block their crop.
