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.
