Well, sort of! From what I learned last night, all they pretty much did was change a few names (check out Purina 400 and 500), and switched out Athlete for Amplify in the feeds. And added Amplify to a few more, including the Senior, which is supposed to lower the NSC values. Which, of course, then jacks up the price, lol!

The funny part of the whole thing was, in the drawing at the end, I won a ball cap (I wear them anyway), and shadowdancer won a free bag of feed, which of course, he let me pick out for Gypsy, of course!:hysterical:

Wouldn't a lower NSC value be better?

Other than that - its all in the marketing.

Yes, it is better- I was only referring to how they did it.

now if only they would use QUALITY ingredients and keep them the same thur every batch instead of being least cost effective

Those good old collective terms they use to put whatever's cheapest in the feed, lol!
