Grazing like a horse
Grazing is the most common behavior for horses to nurture. So of course shaytons do the same!
They eat many types of grass, leaves, fruits, anything they can find and gives them enough nutrients. Even tho the majority of their diet is herbs, they are omnivorous. This means that their digestive system isn't likely to a horse's so they are less likely to colic and they are able to vomit. |
Meat-eaters?!
Yes, indeed. Shaytons do eat meat. Even tho it's not the main source of energy for them, they do enjoy a good snack.
In the wild, when snow covered the land, most horses had a hard time finding enough food. But shaytons adapted well - digging out small rodents from the ground, catching birds or maybe even feeding on carcasses. In captivity their main food is grass, hay, different types of forage but for training and as treats they still get light types of meat. And of course they still try to catch birds out on the pastures or stomp on any rodent that wanders through their stall - that barn won't have any problem with rats! |
Demonic features
The most interesting of their eating behaviors - and a really important essential in their training.
As most demons, shaytons can feel, recognise and track down feelings very well. They are likely to have a favourite feeling and they will choose the company of a person who produces that specific feeling many times. This is a key element in their training as they focus on their human companion and learn much faster if they have a bond made by this. Some of the most common feelings they like are anxiety or anger. Shaytons make a great companion for anyone with generalized or social anxiety or even anger issues or PTSD. |
