This is just my two cents but I would stick to the Mazuri if at all possible. I have "tested" a few other feeds and found that it has been worth my time to find new sources of Mazuri. (I have had dealers stop stocking it for me, too) Just go to thier website and use the dealer locator. In the worst case, just call a few of your local feed dealers and ask them if they carry PMI products. If they don't they can probably tell you who does. Call them up and ask for the person in charge of feed orders. Then it's just a matter of being profesional with whomever you speak to. Most of them are willing to carry extra products if they know you will be a consistant customer.
Best of luck!

As far as Cattle feed , during some counter chat and reseach with feed store clerk we found a negative ingrediant in their cattle cubes for rodent food,sorry i dont remember which ingrediant that was but that closed my interest in cattle cubes,so i use the Sow Cubes as a staple for years now!!
