The compressed horse pellets--alfalfa only-- or the alfalfa meal pellets
are what are normally used. You have to watch out for the additives used
to make them into feed. Corn and molasses are two of those ingredients.
There was a discussion on-list a few years back about something in the
corn (I think) that was a growth supressant. Laurie is correct about meal
being better, and for an additional reason--less weed seeds. I got a batch
of the horse pellets one year and had a huge crop of weeds the following
spring. Weeds which I had never seen before.

Hi All:
I'm curious about the type of alfalfa pellets being used. Is it
just ALFALFA compressed into pellets or an alfalfa based pelleted feed
such as one would feed rabbits? Or does it matter?
