Most supermarkets sell wheat bran.

I chuck oatbran at my mealies. get it from Julian Graves shops.

Mealies will eat most cereal derived products.

As i said in your thread also under the same name in a different section "
You can get bran from a horse bedding suppliers, you can get a big 4ft sack of it for roughly the same price as a bag from the rep shops"

Could you give me a price per kg that you pay? so i have a rough estimate and a platform to compare on? And there must be some millers out there amoungst you folk...

Oh and thank you very much for the horse link, we like the lateral thinking going on there... grand...

Thank you for that, £0.30 per kg is more the kind of price range that everyone likes now! And now to really push my luck, can anyone find it cheaper while we're looking (not that 30p/kg isn't really very good now, but this has become somewhat of a game to me) and go!
