Wheatfeed

A well-balanced energy, starch and digestible. A by-product of flour manufacturing from screened grains of wheat or de-husked spelt. It consists principally of fragments of the outer skins and particles of grain from which less of the endosperm has been removed than in wheat bran. Available as a meal or 6, 8 and 10mm pellets.
