Re: Need some food advice.

Nutriphase is not a good food. It's is actually comparable to the stuff you are buying at Wal-Mart which is most likely Hartz or the other garbage brand that Wal-Mart sells. Kaytee feeds are low quality too Wiggly. They may not contain corn but they contain many other low quality ingredients including ethoxyquin which is a potentially cancer causing preservative.

The top brands are Oxbow (www.oxbowhay.com), check their page for a store locator, Kleenmama's (www.kmshayloft.com), she has both timothy and alfalfa based and can only be ordered online but is the highest quality feed you can find and then Mazuri 5664.

You say you don't want to spend X amount to get it shipped but in actuality if you buy a large bag of 25lbs. and add the shipping on, you will find that in the majority of cases, it will come to a good price per pound and you will have top quality food. You can always freeze the bulk of the pellets and they will last a long time in the freezer. That way you don't have to order as often too.
