I use Farr with good results.  Farr makes a shreaded beet based feed which
is high in fiber (beet) and high in fat (about 6%) and fortified with lots
of good stuff including probiotics.  It is not advertised nationally
because you cannot get it nationally.  The Farr rep told me they
retrofitted a mill somewhere in the western states (at least west of the
Mississippi) to fill the feed.  It is good and I reccomend it.  It's called
Legacy.  Their other feed are also good.  The are a lot more consistant
than most of the other brands I have tried.
