Feeding Pellets

[dutch007]

     My boys seem to waste quite a bit of feed regardless of the style of feeder I use resulting in a waste of money. When I fed them pellets as youngsters they didn't seem to waste any. I understand that pellets are more expensive but if they are wasting 50% of their hay, it makes pellets a cheaper option. Hypothetically: If a person were to feed pellets only in the winter, how much does a person feed them since they won't have browse in my area until spring? 3 of the boys are 22 months old and I have one 6 yr old.
