Are these 100% oats and spelt, or did you toss some bread flour in there, too? I've been a bit concerned about trying high percentage spelt since I can see being flummoxed by how extensible it is and how quickly it ferments.
Ice, if you search the TFL archive with "100% Spelt", you can find very successful bakes by Michael Wilson (of Italian baking fame), dabrownman (of recent resurrection) and txfarmer, TFL's all-time champion in the Crumb Structure category.
Can't wait to see the crumb!

Nice job, and thanks for tempting...

It is 32% Spelt with bread flour. The crumb is very moist and tender and has a great flavor.![](/files/u73224/5DIV1058.jpg)
I am planning a Honey Spelt Oat Porridge loaf with cranberries and pumpkin seeds for this weekend. Hopefully, mine turns out as nice as yours!
I'm sure it will turn out great.
