Crimp barley

[RAF]

Currently feed B&W bulls , crimp barley mixed with protein blend and chopped hay , seams to be a lot of grain going through them . Is this normal as feeding a high amount ? Plenty straw bedding chew to on and all the grain has been cracked ,
Just wondering tia

We’ve had the same issue, been crimping for years, never had so much pass through them. Like you all grains appear cracked. Dose seem a bit drier this year, maybe a little over baked in that hot sun?

Feeding any live yeast to help digestion??

I am, Diamond V (pre fermented) I’ve upped the straw in our ration which seems to of helped, but still some passing through.

Feeding yeast , don’t know weather it’s live yeast , watching them there is plenty cudding , seams it’s not staying in them long enough ? I ve never fed this much crimp alone always had dry roll with it . Do u rate it as a feed @Beefy

Yes, rate it above dry cereals for sure. Added bonus of all your milling done in one go and easy to store. Even though we’ve got grains passing through performance hasn’t dropped, liveweight gain still the same.
