How often do you give dried treats?

Like dried danelions, blackberry leaves, carrot tops etc.....? Either bought, or from a shop (Naturals sell lots of variety, a few others do too).
 
i give some everyday. usually alternate them each day... i get the coneflower and coltsfoot from hayexperts and then a variety from galens garden. :)
 
Ah, thats ok then. I give my babies something everyday as they dont get to go outside very often. I have started picking things from my mums garden and drying them myself, dandelion leaves, grass and blackberry leaves from Alices, plus carrot tops from my grandma who grows them herself.

I actually have a wee bowl that always has something dried on offer...... sometimes I hide pellets in it too :)
 
Normally every 2-3 days but not a lot recently cos I haven't been able to get hold of the Burns stuff but I have five bags on order so hopefully I'll be able to go pick them up soon.
 
I've got about 10 different types of dried leaves (not the dried fruits/carrots) from the Hay Experts and I have them all mixed together in a tub and I give a small quantity daily :)

I wouldn't feed dried carrot tops daily, they are very high in calcium so should only be a treat :)

I dont give carrot tops daily as I only have a few :)
 
yup. as soon as i get up in a morning, they're both going mad for their leaves:) buys me a bit of time to have a cuppa before i have to prepare the veggies;)

I give my guys their leaves in the evening, when we are having dinner, so we can try and eat our dinner in peace! :eek:
 
Every day - they get the burns meadow herby mix or plantain, i mix it in to their hay to encourage them to eat it. They also get a fenugreek crunchie or 3 each day although they are now on rations due to Joejoes diet.
 
Yep, I have a wide variety of dried herbs and feed every day, either mixed in hay or just in a bowl :)
 
:wave: everyday, they have it mixed on with their pellets to encourage them to eat it (though i kinda know they dont need encouragement :roll: but the pellets look so boring, i like their bowles to look colourful :oops:)
