It's all in the weight

$23.00 plus tax for 21 17 or $26.00 for 26 20 at a local feed store here with our coon club's discount.
Did buy some 24 20 Diamond Hi Energy yesterday for $23.79. Feed store had $2.00 off per bag for some reason. When I mixed the 50 pound bag of 21 17 Pride with the 50 pound bag of High Energy I got more scoop's of feed out of the Hi Energy bag. Thought that was odd although I'm sure there is a reason.
The density of the food will affect the volume, the bottom line is the weight. You can have the exact same weight, but the volume it takes up can be very different. Everyone always says I give my dogs "xx" amount of scoops of food every day. Then you hear them talk about switching dog foods & how they are feeding the exact same amount of scoops & the dog is not doing as well or has the runs. Many times they are over or under feeding because the weight they are feeding daily has been drastically affected by the volume being much different due to a different density than what they had been feeding before. I'll shut up for now John! LOL Keep ole blue in that timber!
