Question for Guys feeding Sportmix 26/18
I notice over the last couple times the 26/18 feed looked Different In size & color. Its very inconsistant, I've Fed it for Many years & like it,it always looked the same until this year. I sent in 2 Samples from the 1st time we notice the change, The company Rep said it tested Ok. Question anyone else seeing a differents.

My 26/18 looks the same. I've fed it all 2010-now.
The 24/20 is larger kibble.

How much is the 24/20 and where do you pick it up?
Re: Question for Guys feeding Sportmix 26/18
The last 6 months I been feeding Pride orange bag and pride black bag and they do good on it. The Dark green bag that used to be so good is crap now, imho.
I didn't like when the changed all the kibble to small size, it was ok for puppies but the hounds seem to choke on it being small, but there does seem to be less air and finer grinding in the kibble now, it don't float if you add water.
One time I got some and I know they forgot to spray the fat on, it was so pale and dry looking, no oil feel to the touch when you handled it.
I raised some good puppies on the 27/18 sportmix blue bag few years ago but the adults were hyper on it, restless and noisy in the kennel, changed the feed and they settled down, was like they'd had to much coffee...
I don't think your going to get any Company to admit to anything, they may go back an review processing but they ain't gonna fess up they did it wrong. I guess as long as they fix the problem is the best we can hope for...![Cross Fingers :crossfingers:](./images/smilies/icon_crossfingers.gif)

I noticed the change also but mine seem to like it. I add some vegetable oil to mine when I feed.
