    Fitting Ration?

    The man I bought my show heifer from said to buy Pilgrim's fitting ration to feed her. What is a fitting ration? What do y'all think about the Pilgrim Developer and Acco Heifer Developer. I am a newbie and everyone I talk to has the "BEST" opinion and says their feed is the only one to feed.
