Feed question KGB

Post by Agtopper » Wed Mar 28, 2018 6:45 pm

Normally if I have some pigs on 709 and getting a little low on feed, I can stop at one of the closeby TSC stores and get a bag or two. Yesterday, I stopped at a store nearby to get some and they had none in stock. Checked 2 more stores today and there was none in stock. Normally, I get my feed from a co op 20 miles away but usually have to order a few days out. Is there a reason I can't find 709 like normal? TSC stores had some goat, beef and sheep feeds on hand.

None that I know of. Did you ask the TSC stores?

It was all young kids working and none had an answer. Calling co op in morning hoping they have some on hand.

There shouldn’t be a reason on the Purina side why there is no 709. I say shouldn’t. But, I have found that human people come in various forms and stages of consciousness.

None of us are immune from error. We strive to keep it to a minimum.

The local feed store here does not have any either.

Perhaps the stores are confused. What I mean is that back in October when we added Ambitine to the HSC Showpig feeds we changed the code numbers. The old codes were obsoleted. Perhaps the stores are confused by this and believe they cannot order the feed.

That is the only possible explanation I can think of. Where are the stores you speak of (name of store, city and state)?
