My two mini's get a flake of Alfalfa in the am and a flake of Timothy in the pm plus a cup of Omelene 200 each and a mineral/salt horse lick. They leave behind the stems of the alfalfa and then barely eat the Timothy. This is leading to lots of hay spread out on th ground and waste. Could I put them on all Alfalfa?I know the grass hay is good for them but they just won't touch it. I have tried not feeding again until it is all cleaned up but it just sits there!!The hay is very good quality..no mold and smells sweet. They both just had their teeth done a few weeks ago. I am a bit worried that they don't eat the stems of the alfalfa (well..they eat some of them but leave a lot of that too). Maybe I should give Alfalfa in the am and switch to a complete feed?Forage is the most important thing in their diet..I am aware of that but it seems so much is wasted. Any advice would be so appreciated!
