Re: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Incubator Suggestion

This has been hashed and rehashed way too many times here.
They are in fact separate entities here. I have both as customers.
I can take you to both right here in the county I live in. Neither mill has a thing to do with the other.
Nutrena feeds come from the Cargill mill in Wooster.
Purina Feeds come from the LandOLakes mill in Orrville.
You won't find any Nutrena feed coming from the LandOLakes/Purina mill, nor will you find Purina feed coming from the Cargill/Nutrena mill. That being said, I know where they're both made and I don't/won't use any Purina poultry feeds. I do however, sometimes use a medicated chick starter from Nutrena. I use a local mill for all my layer feed.

They are the same company in other countries and share the same ingredient sources for their feed. A long time ago Pete, myself, and others researched and wrote the companies.

There is NO connection between Nutrena and Purina in the United States.

The Nutrena name is owned by Cargill a huge multinational corp. They license the rights to use the Purina name OUTSIDE the United States ONLY. Cargill does not make and sell Purina feed in the United States.

Purina Mills, the company that makes and sells Purina Feeds in the United States, is a division of Land of Lakes, member-owned agricultural cooperative from Minn. Purina and the Chow brand marks are used by Land O' Lakes Purina Feed LLC., under license only in the United States and its territories (including Puerto Rico).

© 2007 Land O' Lakes Purina Feed LLC All rights reserved.

The Purina Name and the trademarks is owned owned by Nestle Purina PetCare Company, they license the rights to use the Purina name. In the United States Land of Lakes is the licensee, through Purina Mills.

In other Parts of the world Cargill is the licensee.
