Animal Feed. It’s Your Most Important Decision.

When you want the best source for animal feeds, look for the feed mill that sets the standards for the American West. At Ranch-Way Feeds, we have made top quality feed for over 60 years. In the process, we have become the leading regional feed supplier throughout the Rocky Mountain region.

Your decision about your feed supplier is arguably the most critical decision you will make regarding your animals. It’s the one factor that is certain to affect how an animal appears and ultimately thrives.

Quality feed is what Ranch-Way Feeds has been creating for decades in Fort Collins, Colorado--land of 300 days of sunshine, high mountains and the untamed Cache la Poudre River.  Naturally, a clean-scrubbed Rocky Mountain town like Fort Collins would be the place where Ranch-Way Feeds products  are manufactured.  

Ranch-Way Feeds is the oldest continuously operating business in Fort Collins.  Flour milling began on this site in 1868.  Feed milling began in 1948. Today we manufacture a full-line of nutritional products including blocks, pellets, granules, grain mixes, and bird seed.
 

Tailor-Made for Western Feeding

Ranch-Way Feeds is a full line feed manufacturer. We make and distribute animal feed throughout the Rocky Mountain region. Only the highest quality products are produced and distributed.  We manufacture feed for animals from Alpacas to Zebras….and everything in between.  

Ranch-Way Feeds provides feed to feed stores, ranches, feedlots, dairies, horse barns, kennels, game bird farms, buffalo ranches, 4-H and FFA members, animal nutrition research at Colorado State University, the Division of Wildlife, the Denver Zoo and more.

We have a full-time PhD Animal Nutritionist on staff and a Professional Animal Scientist-Certified Technical Services department able to consult, design custom diets, and formulate rations for all classes of commercial livestock, horses, farm animals, show livestock, and avian species.  

We formulate and manufacture feed according to research-based National Research Council (NRC) guidelines to meet the nutritional requirements of each species.  It is Ranch-Way’s goal to manufacture every feed order quickly and efficiently, while providing customers with a product that is safe, clean, consistent in appearance, and carefully formulated and manufactured.  

Quality control is the job of everyone involved in designing, manufacturing, packaging, and delivering Ranch-Way Feeds. Feed safety is a primary concern. We have a hard-earned Facility Certification Institute* (FCI) certification and are Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points** (HACCP)-enrolled.  Throughout our modernized plant, state-of-the-art manufacturing and packaging processes are in place. Comco controls are used to monitor the automated batching, pelleting, and packaging systems in the feed mill to comply with feed-safety procedures.

The way we see it?  Rigorous systems controls equal the highest quality feeds.

Ranch-Way Feeds. The Way Western Animals are Fed!

*The Facility Certification Institute (FCI) is an internationally respected and recognized third party certification provider. FCI was created by the American Feed Industry Association (AFIA) to provide non-biased, third party certification programs and ensure the continued safety of feed and food products.

**The Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) is an FDA management system in which food safety is addressed through the analysis and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards from raw material production, procurement, and handling, to manufacturing, distribution, and consumption of the finished product.
