[mini lop1]

as in the grounded down dried herbs from supermarket, my nan just gave me 2 little pots of basil and mint, said add it to mabels hay to make her more interested in eating the other hays, I have never done this before is it ok

I've never thought about this before, but my instinct tells me no. I think it's probably because dried herbs always seem just so dusty and old I would never use them for cooking.

I was also not sure how confident I could be that "dried mint" for example was just dried mint, so I googled and came up with this http://www.independent.co.uk/life-s...e-totally-different-ingredients-10407772.html

If I were you I wouldn't. I can't see that it would do her a great deal of harm, but I just wouldn't.

Lot of folk have done this before, and it's perfectly safe. I haven't, but I see no reason why not

I would. I see it no different to us picking and drying our own herbs at home.
I actually might give it a go adding them to homemade toys.
