Ridecamp: Re: [RC] Dynamite

I just fed a combination of whole oats and rolled corn...
about 1/2 lb corn to 2 pounds of whole oats for the 'ol 
TB.  I skipped the barley.  Many years ago I first asked
(rec.eq?  may have been pre-Ridecamp) what nutrients were
in barley that were not in a combination of oats and corn.
I didn't get an answer then and I still haven't heard any
reason as to why a person would have to feed barley along 
with the oats and corn.  Unless Susan or one of our other 
nutritionists out there in Ridecamp land has a good 
argument to hunt down barley, I'd skip it.  Seems to me 
adding barley was just cheeper than feeding all oats with 
a little corn to get the full complement of amino acids.
