I remember the time my ol’ buddy Hank dared me to eat some horse alfalfa pellets, saying they were ‘nature’s cereal.’<\/p>\n

So there I was, in front of my cackling hens, chewing on what tasted like the lovechild of cardboard and grass clippings.<\/p>\n

Spoiler alert: It was no Lucky Charms. But hey, it made me wonder, if I can survive this crunchy ordeal, can my feathered friends do the same?<\/p>\n

Turns out, chickens can indeed peck away at horse alfalfa<\/a> pellets.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And they’d probably enjoy it a heck of a lot more than I did!<\/strong><\/p>\n
