Those that feed barley for weight gain.

[Reashi]

Just a quick question to those that feed barley for weight gain.....do you find it makes your horse fizzy? I want to start feeding barley for weight gain but really don't want a heating feed.

i feed barley rings to my fizzy lad, he is actually not been as fizzy since hes been on them lol

I've fed barley to many horses over the years, and have never known any of them fizz up on it.

Nope- I feed them to a very OTT TB and have never had any problems.

Flaked barley or barley rings might make for lunacy and hives, however if you home boil barley it will put on condition and bloom without the madness or the rash.

nope dosent make mine fizzy, although i boil my barley!

I feed the micronized barley and it doesn't fizz mine up - although sometimes I wish it would a bit!!! He can be a bit too laid back.

I've fed boiled barley to a WB to my cob and NFs with no bad effects at all.
