Are any of them bad? I know alfalfa is only to be fed to pregnant and baby pigs. Are most of them practicaly the same just given a fancy name?
All of those are fine to feed. None are bad, but, your pigs may prefer one over another. I am pretty sure Alfalfa can be fed to adult pigs, but only supplementally once or less per week. But all of the others are perfectly finr to feed. You can even mix types of hay. (A blend of your pig's favorites)
