[QUOTE="yellowbelly, post: 4077606, member: 42308"] I know the OP couldn't do this because he'd run out but IMHO the best way to get them on to new crop barley is to mix it with old crop, say20%NC to 80%OC for 3 or 4 days and then 40%NC to 60%OC for 3or 4 more and keep gradually building it up until they are on 100% in about a fortnight. One of the golden rules of feeding (anything, not just barley) is to introduce any changes GRADUALLY. [/QUOTE]
