I have bought the boys a couple of small bags of burgess excel as they were on offer. They love it. It doesn't last long lol

How much and how often can they have it?
 
It depends what the forage contents are - some things are fine to have daily but others need to be kept limited
With forages, it tends to be a tablespoon or so a day.

I get my forage from Piggie Parcels (a business run by a member of this forum). She offers a variety of dried leaves and vegetables and fruits. I give a small amount of leaves daily (particularly in summer as I don’t feed pellets much in summer) but the veg and fruits are given once a week

Ive just looked it up to see the ingredients. It looks to be fine to give them a small amount daily

Yes. I give a few pinches sprinkled in their hay pile.
I use single item bags though (ie not a mixture of things in one bag like the burgess one is) so I can pick and choose which items they have daily and ones which are fed less frequently (like dandelion which is a touch higher in calcium so I don’t give that one daily)
