(hum.. the Columbian Dotte must be an eb (brown) based variety. Otherwise they would not be calling for bluish slate undercolor in
the female and allowing ticking in the saddle in the male. )

Does anyone know of a supplement "like" Manna Pro Calf Supplement? My local TSC has stopped carrying it and the nearest location that has it is approx 20 miles from the house...I'm guessing that there has to be something similar to it

Thanks

Scott, are you looking to increase protein? If so, you might look into gamebird feed. I use it half and half with a breeder/layer pellet to increase protein.

I use Nutri-Boost by Lone star feeds but it is probly not available in your area. It is a east Texas(Nachadoches) based company, I figure there are more companies that offer an equivalent/comparable feed to CM though. The Nutri-Boost has the same ingredients for aroud 2/3s the MannaPro price

Good luck

There are lots of horse people around Cartersville. Horatio Luro had a big farm, and training track there too. Ask some horse people where they are getting it. TSC can't have run all the other feed stores out of business.
 
I use a 16% layer feed and supplement with sport mix high energy dog food as a treat in the afternoon , sounds crazy but the protine is 27% and amino and fats are balanced easy to get and they luv it

I have some corn mash from my pluming fixture in the back woods. My birds love this stuff. If you can get FRM Game Bird Pellets 20% from Flint River Mills Georgia its got everything you need.
The finish is fantastic on the birds feathers as well for showing

. Wonder if I will get some probation for this post? bob
