Question: We feed fitters edge this year to our show calves. I would like to know the differance between the fitters edge and the grand 4-t fryer feed.
Answer: Greg,
Thank you for contacting the Honor Show Chow Website!
HSC Fitters Edge is a complete feed. HSC Grand 4T Fyer is a CONCENTRATE to be blended with corn, oats, cottonseed hulls, beet pulp, molasses, etc. on farm or at the local dealership. When blended with the grains (depends on the inclusion obviously), it will provide similar nutrient fortification to a product like HSC Fitters Edge or HSC Finishing Touch. In certain parts of the country, the HSC Grand 4T Fyer grind n mix option can save significantly from a ration cost standpoint. In other parts of the country, those cost saving might be diluted down (freight, grains are not available locally, no grind and mix facilities, etc.).
If you are feeding several animals, I would look at the HSC Grand 4T Fyer option. If you are only feeding 2 to 3 head, I would probably recommend staying with the HSC Fitters Edge simply from a convenience standpoint.
You can find the features and benefits of both products at www.HonorShowChow.com, click on Honor Show Chow Feeds, click on HSC Beef Cattle Feed.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
