Hi Kari,
I think that you should just continue to use the pea greenfeed as a treat. The protein level in it is only about 8%, which would be the equivilant of a low quality hay. It also contains a very low level of calcium and is very high in nitrates and fiber (the reason not to feed during late gestation). Fed as their only diet would require alot of supplementing.
Just my 2 cents :)
