Rice Bran as a Supplement????????

[Stihlpro]

I have neighbor who has horses and raises a couple steers each year.  She swears Rice Bran is a great additive to the steers diet.  Just curious what any of you think about this.  ???

I agree with AAOK... that natural glo is some pretty good stuff, IMHO.

I used to sell a product called Premium Gold. It was refined corn oil & cherry Flavoring. Made the feed smell amazing, cut down on dust & increased fat levels.
Usual amount was 5%. a lot of feed mills sell it.

Thanks for the input! It's much appreciated, especially coming from you who have a ton more experience at doing this than I do.  I don't post often but read almost everyday.  ;D  (clapping)

With Rice Bran do you like the crumbles or the pellet form?

I fed the nuggets, which is basically a pellet.  I liked it, but I haven't tried it any other way.

When we were feeding rice bran, we used Equi Jewel and it is in an almost powder like form.  It worked ok for us but trying a few different things this year.

What is the difference between the ADM Natural Glo Rice Bran and Manna Pro Max-E-Glow Rice Bran?
