Several (mostly hobby cattlemen) killed bunches of cows and calves around here due to bloat by feeding soyhull pellets during the drought a few years back.
They're an inexpensive (sometimes) supplement. Be careful.
I have developed bulls on soyhulls and hay and they did fair. ADG=3-4 lbs. I never got up the nerve to free choice them though. The marbling and backfat was a little lacking that year too.

We have them mixed heavy for Winter feeding.Cattle do well on them,some feed them almost as a sole feed. I'd be afraid to do that, as they might cause bloat like Soy Hull pellets.MikeC":2p03ewxe said:Crowderfarms":2p03ewxe said:Mike, what are your feelings on Corn Gluten Pellets?MikeC":2p03ewxe said:Medic24":2p03ewxe said:Ever notice though with soy hull pellets the cattle tend to swell and regergatate much more when they first start eating them? don't like that too much. :cboy:

I have never fed them alone. Only in a complete feed mix.
Sorry, I cannot say from experience. Only hearsay.
