| Saw a rep this weekend at a barrel race for ADM.. Talked about seniorGLO .. It sounds good. I currently feed triple crown senior with good success, so im hesitant to try ADM but im considering it! I was curious to everyone's opinions on which one really is better . Thanks ! |

| I have fed both. ADM Sr glo in my opinion is the better of the two. I however now feed Renew Gold and Oats. Love the results. |

| fed triple crown sr for 2 yrs, just changed to adm sr glo 2 months ago and i must say its a better feed. i feed less and my boy looks great! another upside is me saving $6 per bag. |

| Wow , I'm glad to be hearing that it a actually is better .. It is a little over $ 2 a bag cheaper for me . I'm thinking I'm going to give it a try ! I wasn't sure which one was truly better .. Only people with experience with both would really know .. Thanks for responding guys :) you are making me more comfortable giving it a try lol how much do you guys feed of the seniorGLO ? How much mess seniorGLO do you feed vs the TC ? |

I agree. If they were both available in my area, I would have a tough time picking. However, Triple Crown is the only one of the two available so I feed that and I've had awesome results. I took this picture this weekend. This mare is 18 years old.

| Oh the 18 yr old looks very good :) how much TC senior is she getting a day ? It is a difficult decision to make .. But if I can have my herd look just as good & save money then I might as well give it a try ! I will pick up a bag of adm today . Anyone have pics of their horses on the adm seniorGLO ? |

She only gets one scoop a day....I don't weigh my scoops, but I'm guessing 5-6 pounds a day. I give her 2 oz. of HealthyCoat also. ETA - Wanted to add that I feed TC Senior to both of them, as well as the HC.
Here is the Palomino in the background, taken yesterday... she was being super nosey while I was cleaning stalls. She is 30 days out from foaling. She is such a pretty dark Palomino, but this picture isn't showing that too well.... not the best picture in the world, but she looks so good.

Location: Texas | I just changed my two to Triple Crown. And love it. I don't have access to the other so I can't comment on it. But Triple Crown Sr to my 32 yr old, has helped her a lot! She runs out of the barn now days, and gobbles her feed and no longer just picks at it. |

Location: Willows, CA | I have worked with both companies. TC purchased stabilized rice bran from me for years, and many of the ADM products that have Glo in the name received some influence from me based on the start of the forage first program that centered originally around Natural Glo from my company. They both have products that are among the best in their category. I prefer Senior Glo in that market. TC makes a good textured feed if you use that kind of product. I think that, for most the the two lines it comes down to what is available in your area, and price. Either way, I think they try hard to provide quality. You can't say that about a lot of feed companies. |

Location: NC | If one is cheaper than the other, that's the one you should go with. I think they both have the quality that others just don't have. Two of the best companies out there, in my honest opinion.
I tried a locally milled feed that was equivalent to TC Senior. I was feeding 6lbs of TC Senior, and ended up feeding twice as much of the locally milled stuff when I finally said to heck with it and switched back to Triple Crown. I feed the Complete now, just bc I don't mind the extra starch in it for my herd. No issues with mine and no hot heads, so it's pretty alright for the 21% NSC.
It made me see that not all feed companies are made the same. ADM is up there with TC though for sure. I would definitely look into it if I had it available to me. |

I remember when you posted about switching and I was thinking she will regret it. I had a feeling youd end up feeding alot more of the local milled stuff..
not sure why but it works that way alot..
the better quality grains you just dont have to feed alot of ..i agree adm and tc are both good |

| I started switching mine over to the seniorGLO :) they seem to really like it.. I'm sure they will do great on it with all these great reviews ! I agree they are both quality companies & I love them both ! Adm is just a little cheaper around here , so that's what I'm going to try. I emailed adm & the head lady told me to put my 3 yr old on the JuniorGLO.. Then the seniorGLO when she is 4. She could use the extra protein I feel .. So I may do that . Any thoughts on that from anybody ? |

| I would say adm. Triple crown is a part of southern states, they also are a contract feed for nutrena in some parts of the country. Southern states is a nasty company as we have a company owned store here local and i would rather buy from tractor supply as the, manager and staff at the store have a terrible attitude towards customers. I talked to,the tripe crown rep at nbha world and when southern states bought out some small companies, they did not care about the little people and souther states is in the south they lost a bunch of customers about 10 year ago. A long time ago i had am account and if i bought some many bags of feed i got a discount and every quarter i got shares on the amount of stuff i purchased and got a small amount of money back, we did this for years. They got new managers and they where more concerned with big farmers and did not care about the little guy and when you stand in line there employees have an attitude. Will not buy anything in themstore unless i cant get it amywhere else.
ADM iS A COMPANY WITH SOME PRIDE? IT IS A GOD COMPANY WITH GOOD PRODUCT.

It looked good on paper. That's about it. Same general ingredients but it just didn't work out. Should've just stuck with what I know for sure works. And I haven't had any issues with TC.
