Lambs will begin to nibble at hay and grain by the time they are a
week old, some sooner. Although they won't consume significant
amounts of feed until three weeks of age, the small amounts are very important
for establishing rumen function and the habit of eating. So yes, a
little grass is good for your little guy.
