Hi everyone! I just got my first ND doe in milk with her doeling a few weeks ago. The previous owner told me to mix one part textured feed (17/18%) with one part alfalfa pellets. She also said to add in BOSS but I wasn't sure the correct ratio.
She's about 50 lbs and has a lot of varied woodland forage. I have her on a grass and clover hay as well. Can someone tell me how much textured feed, alfalfa pellets, and BOSS to give daily?
I've read a lot of things warning against too much grain. But I'm wondering how much is too much? If she seems like she could put on a little weight and I want to boost milk production, what is a safe upper limit for grain?
Thanks!
