I agree, give them some free choice minerals if they wish to eat they will, if not dont worry. The biggest thing about alfalfa here in the east is the cost. If you can buy grass hay for $20/round bale, alfalfa generally cost $35-40/bale. If you had dairy cattle it would be different, you would want heifers to grow quick and want to get the most milk out of the cows. I know of many people feeding alfalfa and have no real problems, other than if they are switched too quick they can get loose and if you try to feed different types of hay (i.e. grass hay) they wont eat it as well if you feed them the alfalfa. Always feed the worse hay first and work up to the best. If you have dairy's around, an idea next year may be to bale the big squares of alfalfa and sell them.
