Beans in dry gutload

[drcrossfire]

So i've been doing some research into dry gutloads, and I notice that a few blends incorporate a large variety of dry beans (lima, red, pink, split pea, etc)

I have been trying to find some good references for bean nutritional information with regards to Ca: ratios

please let me know if you know of good sources. thx!

If your purpose is to include protein, consider: spirulina, alfalfa

And you can soak it in water for a dual purpose quencher / water source

yes nori /roasted seaweed sheets are fine. Kelp and spirulina are better.

you'll need to compensate for the high phosphorous from the beans and oats.
a better grain than oats might be whole barley, depending on why you are including / what nutrients you are after
