[QUOTE="rk, post: 442658, member: 2993"] Two things: First, I don't know if you're intending to use the grain as the total diet. If so, grains by themselves are not a good diet at all. A diet of grains only wouldn't be balanced or probably even safe with all the starches. Second, whole corn can definitely be fed and utilized to a very high degree (this has been hashed several times on this board). Just make sure it's balanced by adding an appropriate concentrate/supplement. Also, start with a lower feeding rate and work them up to allow the rumen to adjust. [/QUOTE]
