| Gorman Milling was started in 1969 and has grown into a company that covers approximately two city blocks. We are proud that we are still a local family-run business and we owe our success and growth to the farmers and ranchers of this area. No matter what your need is, we are committed to that need. We work hard to get you the best price. Buying ingredients in train car loads helps keep our cost and your price down. We specialize in custom formula products and feeds. These custom formulas are formulated around your particular needs, feed habits, animals, management, and goals. You first meet with our nutritionist and develop a custom formula that is right for your individual needs. After the formula is developed it is available in bag or bulk purchase. A major benefit to you is since we purchase by the train car load and keep a large inventory of ingredients your custom formula can be tweaked at anytime.

Answer: Lower protein means a savings to you in feeding costs and allows cattle to make use of higher protein grasses coming up in pastures right now. Feeding a 16% cube allows to still supplement cattle with additional energy for growth and conditioning without ever doing protein. Whether your conditioning some cattle for a sale or simply calling up the cows the PRO-TEX cube is a smart choice. One of the great things about this product is that you can now buy a cube that costs less than most of the loose or textured feeds. THE PRO-TEX cube is a all natural cube. |
Answer: If you take our product called Stable Supreme and feed 8 lbs and top dress 2 lbs of rice bran you will be around 6% on fat. Best of all your total cost will be about $1.00 per head per day less! Stable Supreme at $7.35 per bag at 8 lbs per head per day is $1.18 cost per head per day and Rice Bran at $ 5.35 per bag at a 2 lbs per head per day rate is $0.22 cost per head per day. Total cost per head per day = $1.40 (based off prices as of 4\11\08.) I would split the feeding into twice per day feedings. If you prefer not to top dress rice bran then we have Horesmans choice which runs pretty close to 6% fat or if you can handle two tons at a time I can formulate you a custom mix for your horses. |
