What Makes Him Pure Good?[]

- During a meeting with the animals, he warns everyone about the coyotes and tells them to be careful.
- He persuaded Otis to cut down on goofing-off and be a strong enough responsible leader and successor.
- He covers Otis' shift and let's him go to the Barn with his friends, despite wanting him to cut down on goofing-off.

- He sacrificed himself to save the hens from Dag and his coyotes.
- He is why Otis became who he is today.
- While he is a serious contrast to many other heroes and the comedic tone itself, he is nowhere near played negatively as a game changer as he is very compassionate, pacifistic and non-lethal as a protective leader of the barn with the defense towards the true game changer being Dag.
