This message is from: Steve A White <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Steve,
I posted your question on the equine vet list and got a couple of replys. The real name is hegari but is pronounced hygear. One vet said they used to feed it when he was a kid in west TX. He didn't recall having any problems with it other than it turns the manure red. The other vet said he doesn't recommend it because it is related to sorghum and could cause soghum cystitis which is an inflammation ot the bladder. The nutritional value wasn't that great either. Doesn't sound like it is a good alternative to feed for horses. Hope this helps. Steve White, DVM Gretna, NE The FjordHorse List archives can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw
