Pea Flakes - Something to Consider

[breakawayfromme]

Someone I watch on YouTube has a pig with bloat issues and she mentioned to her vet about what she was feeding, and the vet said pea flakes break down differently and its not reccomended to feed them to pigs with bloat/digestive issues (its explained better in the video)

I had no clue about this and one of my pigs has bloat issues and ive still been feeding pea flakes (as a treat) unaware.

I just thought I would share this to make people aware
Anyone have any experience on this topic?

My vet told me this too. Green beans and cucumber are good ones to avoid at bloaty times too!

Better to be safe than sorry as they say
