I was in TSC last week and saw bags of pelleted various grasses; timothy, alfalfa, clover. The pellets were quite large, maybe 3,4 times the size of Purina Layena pellets (a bag was busted open so I could see them). They smell like freshly cut hay.
Since there's nothing green at all here in Michigan, and my girls were used to free ranging a rather large area, I wondered if adding hay would be a good supplement for their diet. I was thinking on soaking the pellets and adding it as a component to their hot mash. They also get either Kent, Purina or Dumor 16% laying crumbles, oyster shell, grit, and kitchen scraps, plus ACV in their water.
Anybody else tried this? Kinda like giving them grass clippings, maybe.
