Anyone on here use it? I know a few breeders in the midwest who swear by it and I'm just wondering what kind of results others get out of it.

I would use it but I can't get it.

I had been getting it piecemeal at shows when I could find it since there was no one local. But I got fed up with scrambling, so I found one of the distributors that was only a little over an hour away and bought two months worth all in one shot and given they were a larger distributor, their prices in bulk were pretty good, so it made up for the gas to go pick them up.

They are both still trying to convince me, and she lives about 45 minutes away. My question to them is how much will I have to get. They get about 13 bags each, but there is no way I can safely store 13 bags, but I can use it before it goes bad, because I use 4-5 bags a month of MannaPro.

True. If that were possible plus the added price of gas. But I could not afford to use that much of my paycheck all at once to buy that much feed at one time. I couldn't put that much in my van, nor could I store that much. The equation just never balances out for me. I understand how and the why, but that would not be a workable situation for me.

By the time you added in freight, it would probably run you about $15/bag on average, but it would beat the "National Lampoon's Vacation" style roadtrip that I just took. :lol:
