Most likely they feed him just enough to keep him alive like we do in hospitals (intravenously). That or they feed him just enough to keep him sane. You say that they wouldn't be stupid enough to feed Arata ghouls, but he was a pacifist that promoted coexistence with human beings from the beginning. That's why his name is the "Corpse Collector."

Unless he became disillusioned and then decided to revolt against humans, I wouldn't be surprised if he surrendered himself voluntarily with the clause that his children not be exterminated. Keep in mind that they didn't bother to investigate Arata's history after nabbing him. Ayato and Touka were sold out by their neighbor after their father's disappearance, forcing them to go on the run. Considering that Hinami's mother was hunted after because of her connection to her husband, it seems extremely unlikely that that was just a coincidence.
