Elaine-chick Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I've been feeding my 3 ex-bat girlies on Allen & Paige Smallholder ex-bat pellets (they adopted me in May !). Valerie has had a few problems with difficult eggs and then Edna on one occasion. So I thought I might try to introduce layers pellets - thinking it may be more suitable to their needs. I've been mixing the 2 types of feed with no problems for about 3 weeks but have only just noticed in small print (on removable label) "This product contains unmolassed sugarbeet and must be soaked and fed as per feed guidelines". I have just been mixing it in with their usual pellets dry. By the way they are all fit and healthy but I was worried that I may be doing them some harm Help anyone ??

Mollie333 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Doubt it would make a huge lot of difference.. No experience with this, sorry, goodluck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine-chick Posted October 2, 2010 Author Share Posted October 2, 2010 Thanks ..think I'm just worrying unnecessarily I'm going to e.mail Allen & Page just to be on the safe side. Tried to ring them today but they're only there Mon - Fri. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Excuse my ignorance! (( Welcome to the forum! )) They will probably be fine, if they have been on it for 3 weeks and they look OK, then its OK i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I wouldnt have thought that any brand of layers pellets would have to be soaked Perhaps the label is from a bag of sugar beet pellets and ended up on the layers pellet bag by mistake..
