Testimonials

While using CUE II, we have seen significant improvement with grade and yield, and use 25% less corn to finish the cattle.

- Ahrendt Brothers

We have been using ShowDay Feeds for many years and have always been impressed with how our cattle have performed. The product is consistent and high quality every time you open a bag.

- RJB Cattle

We shipped 50 bulls from MN to Texas about 1,100 miles (18 hours) and fed Hydro-Lac four days prior to shipping at a ½ lb. rate.  The bulls, averaging 2,173 lbs. dressed out at 56-58%.  In comparison, we shipped two bulls only 100 miles (2 hours) with no Hydro-Lac, and they dressed out at 52%. We were impressed!

- Luke Alsleben

We started using the Tend-R-Leen 525 NBC product last year on our calves on pasture to make up a creep feed using our corn out of the bin so there wasn’t so much out-of-pocket expense.  We mixed it ourselves and used our seed tender to deliver it to creep feeders on pasture. We feel the Rumensin® in the pellet kept the coccidiosis and bloat problems under control and the consumption stayed steady.  The calves seemed to wean easier than the past because they knew what corn was and went right to the corn silage. The calves didn’t show any more flesh than when we used a conventional creep.

- Miller Ranch

We now pay more attention to our operation and are doing a much better job tracking our cattle. We appreciate the individualized attention to our operation that we receive from Form-A-Feed. They actually walk our cattle prior to making recommendations and take the time to discuss them with us. We are able to make necessary changes prior to items becoming a problem.

- Gene & David McClellan

Stealth 5 in tubs helps start calves easier and healthier with less stress. Stress Lic helped with the rate of gain and health of the calf.

- Jeff Ahrendt

Hydro-Flexx makes a big difference. I’ve noticed dramatic changes with our live weight. We’re getting about 0.5% higher dressing percentage. Cull cows also dress higher when fed Hydro-Flexx. Heifers used to ship 1350-1425 lbs., but with Hydro-Flexx ship at 1425-1500 lbs.

- Kohls Land and Cattle

I am a firm believer in Stealth 5 and so are my customers.

- Paul VanderWal, Dakota Country Feed & Seed

Hydro-Lac reduces my shrink, keeps cattle on feed and eating.
