You have to be very careful with the use of alfalfa, if you are using other protein supplements such as mealworms or dog kibble, do NOT give alfalfa, too. If you are only using alfalfa as a protein supplement with NOTHING else (NO PEAS, NO GREEN BEANS, NO MEALWORMS, NO DRIED DOG FOOD), then a tight fist-sized amount per day is okay if they are under 6 months in age and under 2 lbs. Basically, if you make a tight fist, then you don’t want the ration to be more than that size. Otherwise, NO ALFALFA.
” I’m trying to make sure people don’t get carried away or misuse/abuse alfalfa and most of the time I am fairly strict in saying no unless you cannot access the proteins we mention. If used wrong, it can be a serious issue.”
