You can use any grain food you want even corn. You can ferment any feed for just about any animal. Fermenting your grains is supposed to increase your protein by 12%, increase the absorption of your feed nutrients, increase total nutrient value, increase bowel health, increase laying performance, help prevent disease~particularly the intestinal ones like cocci, salmonella, e.coli, lower total feed consumption and thus total feed costs but will cause more weight gain on the lesser amounts of feed. It will make your chicken poop smell better as well so your coop wont smell as bad.
