I've had whole barley Bridge over the auger so wouldn't think rolled would work unless ultra dry which means it would roll to powder and not a flake. Any moisture seeping in would mean it would bridge.

I have a confession to make and it's by no means a brag, I had so much problems with it bridging I stupidly went inside and poked it with a stick .the whole lot came down on top of me. they say I have nine lives I'm sure I use them up a long time ago .but luckily with the bottom hatch being open I shot out with the grain onto the floor
after that I pulled it down and used the panels for gates
