    [RC] rice bran - T.B.Pots


    Hi everyone,
     
    I was wondering what the latest thoughts were on rice bran as far as helping to add weight to horses.  I checked the archives but the most recent threads that came up were from 1999.  My six year old mare is on a 10% protein and 14% fat feed.  The stable owners have also been giving her 1 cup of rice bran.  Now its time for me to decide whether to continue the rice bran or not.  Any suggestions?  I'm concerned about the high phosphorous content and possible calcium leaching.
    I'd like to get more weight on her before winter hits.
