I have been using straw for the nest boxes and on the floor of the coop for my 3 ladies. They seemed to like it. However, I am getting to the end of my straw bale and I have a friend who will give me a free alfalfa bale for a dozen eggs. I have a few questions-
1.) Is alfalfa even good for my girls?
2.) If alfalfa is okay for them, would it be better to use straw or alfalfa?
3.) What kind of bedding do you use? Why?
Thank you so much for the help! Here is a picture of my girls in their new coop. You may notice that there are 4 girls in the picture- sadly my huge Gold Star, Reba, died a couple days ago
