Hi
Not sure if this post has gone to the right page but I wanted advice on if it’s ok to feed organic oat bran in small amounts
Thanks

Bran of any type is not safe for IR horses.

Thanks Lavinia
Is this because it’s too starchy carbohydrate??

Yes, bran is high starch, which converts 100% to glucose when the horse digests it.
