 Regarding oat hay-- oat hay can contain high levels of nitrates, and 
should be tested for safe levels before feeding it to horses. Most 
forages have some nitrates, and it is the conversion to NITRITES that 
cause NITRATE poisoning.
 Side note--just got back from the vet with my new gelding, who, as low 
man on the totem pole was chased around by my other horses and ran into 
a tree branch and laid his chest open thereby severing one belly of his 
triceps clean through. The vet did a great job putting Humpty Dumpty 
back together again, but only time will tell if he can make a full 
recovery. A little prayer from all you RC people would be appreciated.
  Oh, and his name is Benny.   Thanks,  Bruce Weary
