I have gotten 2 bags of chick starter from one store and recently a bag from my local F & S. The local product label noted several differences that are, generally, favorable from my limited recollection.
Protein - Local 20% and Other 19%, Lysine - Local .90% and Other 1.00%, Methionine - Local .37% and Other .45%, crude fat - Local 3.25% and Other 3.00%, crude fiber is equal at 6.00%, calcium min/max .7 / 1.2% and Other .95 / 1.45%, Phosphorus - Local .65% and Other .55%, salt min/max - Local .15/.65% and Other .10 / .60%.
I seem to recall that a majority of the ingredients favor the local product but I can't swear to it. A thread search was not helpful so I ask you, great members, which is the better product?
