I have it on good authority that 16-20% is ample protein for ASF's.

Mice, I do not do. ;)

For the Kent feed, I should have said the fat percentage is a little low, but not too low. Just something to keep in mind.

i ues harlen 2018 from clod bloods .com i pay 13.99 for 33 lbs plus shipping i get 66 lbs shipped for 65.18 total from boston to nashville here is there info 781-679-0663 his name is courtland he will be glad to help you.:)

65 bucks for 66 pounds! Holy crap! can't afford those prices, I would be BROKE!

(posted this on a couple threads for feedback from readers)

I've been reading over the various posts because I too am finding it harder & harder to find the lab block I prefer & at a price that is economical. I'd like to get some feedback on this product that a local business carries.



Guaranteed Analysis
Crude Protein Not less than 18%
Crude Fat Not less than 6%
Crude Fiber Not more than 5%

Ingredients

Wheat Middlings, Ground Whole Corn, Hominy Feed, Menhaden Fish Meal, Flash Dried Blood Meal, Procine Meat & Bone Meal, Poultry Meal, Hydrolyzed Feather Meal, DL Methionine, L-Lysine, Defluorinated Phosphate, and Ethoxyquin (a preservative), Soybean Meal, Alfalfa Meal, Feeding Fat, Calcium Carbonate, Diamond V XPC Yeast, Mono Calcium Phosphate and Di Calcium Phosphate, Salt (Sodium Chloride) Fungex, Vitamin & Mineral Premix, Manganese Oxide, Iron Sulfate, VITAMIN A 650, VITAMIN D 400, VITAMIN E 50, Maganese Oxide, Yucca.

It's an odd ingredients list, I'll give you that much. I'm trying to understand why certain things are included, and what the nutritional analysis of the product is. And also the measurements for the vitamins at the bottom of the list. Corn is the second ingredient, which doesn't scream high quality to me on first glance.

The protein and fat content sounds about right... but like I said, what an ODD assorment of ingredients.

I found it a bit odd as well & I have not found anything else quite like it for comparison.

Any additional feedback would be greatly appreciated

sidenote: unfortunately mazuri's pdf for the 6f blend is not working

does anyone have a copy of it?

I just contacted a guy here in Raleigh NC to get some prices on the 6F I hope they are good! If not I will still be in search of a cheaper food for the feeders.

When I used that before the smell coming off the food was incredible. The rats had an odor to them. I found out one of their main plants is in Georgia and they get the fat from chicken parts. Once I went back to regular food the smelled ceased.
I have been feeding southern State Sow cube for sometime and have never had problems. Even if you just mixed it 50/50 with Maz it would save you tons of money. I paid 11.50 for 50 lbs last week.
