Anyone know if HiPro feeds are made at ionophore free facilities?
Im looking at their performance textured feed and would like to try it but can’t find anything on it in regards to that. I know it’s processed at Cheyenne Oklahoma mill of theirs and also Friona Texas.
I feed Koolspeed also and it’s stamped on the bag processed at ionophore free facility but I’m wondering about HiPro as they have that high fat feed I’d like to try and I’d like to get my alfalfa pellets from them too as their dealers are far more plentiful in Oklahoma where I am.

I don’t know about HiPro. Since they’re in Friona (heart of feedlot country) and cater to the feedlot industry I wouldn’t expect it to be ionophore free.
it May have changed lately, but a few years ago Kool Speed wanted to sponsor me. It was right during all he ionophore problems. I was told it was an ionophore free facility but when I asked for a tour of the facility the owner said no. I didn’t sign in with them for that reason.
Looking at Hi pro website they produce medicated cattle feed so I'm just going to assume they are not a free mill. I could be wrong, they may have separate lines. Youd have to call and ask them directly about how they mill their feed.
The Triple Crown I get is being milled by BlueBonnet so its a Ionophore Free mill. I live in South/Central Texas
Thanks y’all ! Too bad as a horse industry we can’t require feed mills to put on the tag if it was processed in an ionophore free facility or not... you’d think the feed companies would want to use it as a selling point if they do use ionophore free facilities the way koolspeed puts it on their bag... though I wonder what the heck was up with them not letting Liana tour the facility that makes me raise an eyebrow ??
