Question by Money Boo Boo: Can dried lawn clippings be used to feed goats, sheep, miniature cows, etc during the winter?
I’m thinking about purchasing a bunch of land and a few small farm animals once I get doctorate in medicine, I want my animals to have as natural of a diet as possible( meaning grass and zero grain) and as cheap as possible.

Dry lawn clippings would have next to no nutrient value. Either buy good quality hay or don’t get animals.

Hi,
I feed my goats grain and alfalfa and a little costal
but they also get let into the pasture to graze but mainly the above feed.
it can get really exspensive if you have alot of animals
but they do love to eat leaves and graze in the pasture sometimes
hope this is some type of help
