I was giving them some today, they were going crazy over it, and my b/f said it might swell in their stomachs? is it ok? they are about 5 months old.

I finally have them eating out of my hand, raisins did the trick now they come running when they see me.
 
I don't think that would give them any trouble at all. Have you tried searching the subject?(search bar in upper right hand corner)

I did a search but it was added in a homemade feed not just a handful. They LOVED it they even ate it all before they would go roost and it was past that time!
 
A.T. Hagan :

Even in bulk steel cut oats are rather pricy, but they make great chicken feed. Just make sure they're getting some grit too if they're not on the ground.

I have had a carton for a few months I don't usually eat oatmeal so I thought I would give them some. They are on the ground so I don't give grit. Thanks!​
