<< However, no, wheat bran is not as bad as rice bran---and for
that matter, I don't want anyone thinking that rice bran is BAD per se,
like rat poison. It's simply a high-phosphorus food---if you happened
to have a horse that NEEDED a phosphorus supplement, then by golly, rice
bran would be just the thing. >>
Don't forget the gut-coating aspect of brans, Susan. You may have a situation
where very little nutrient gets to the horse, making the Ca/P ratio
irrelevant.
