    I'm still working on finding an alternative rodent food but I found something that might work for some people and is available from Purina distributors. You can find Purina distributors on Mazuri's site.

    Nature's Match Complete Sow Oval (3/4 inch pellets) $15.99 for 50 lbs

    I'm sure you could find it cheaper than my high end feed store.

    I found a dealer that is giving me Mazuri 6F (50 lbs.) for $23.50 a bag. Sales tax brings it up to $25.15 compared to Native Earth at $31.86.

    Mazuri quality is better. I was getting 1-3 pounds of dust in the 40 lb. bags of NE, something I don't see in the Mazuri bags.

    I would love to get Kent for $14-$18 for 50 lbs. but it's just not available anywhere near me.

    I'll mention this for anyone that cares to follow through and maybe make some money. I found local mills that would duplicate any existing food and bag it. They have a 500 lb. minimum and you would need to find a mill that has a die to create the block form but it can be done. You could become the manufacturer and sell locally. Cost was minimal and there was room to make a profit. Good luck.

    Where are you located? New Jersey?

    I get Mazuri 6F for 20 a bag and can get Kent for 11 a bag in Kansas City
