NUTRITION
Earlybird entered the livestock nutrition industry selling complete feeds in 1979. In 1985, manufactured feed processing began at the old El Paso mill. Manufacturing in our current Goodfield facility started in 1995. In 2018, the Roseville facility was completed and also began manufacturing feed. This second location has significantly expanded the territory handled by bagged and bulk delivery services.
Significant growth of the dealer web provided opportunities to acquire both the Chapin and Marionville, Missouri businesses in 2020 and the Triumph location in 2021. Operations in Chapin have been greatly expanded with the completion of our most efficient manufacturing facility in September 2021. Pelleting capabilities were added to the network of facilities in early 2022
Earlybird strives to provide the best nutritional diets for your operation. We offer a large line of proven complete feeds for many species of animals or the flexibility to customize a feeding program to fit your individual needs. This is accomplished through a unique combination of Earlybird branded products and a diverse offering of nationally marketed labels.

This week, Clara Chappell reminds us that champions aren’t made on show day. Long days, disciplined habits, and a determined mindset all lead to moments like this. Keep grinding, stay hungry, and let preparation speak for itself. ✨

Our first #FeatureFriday ✨ of the New Year!
Kaolin Lewis exhibited the Reserve Grand Champion Land of Lincoln Steer and Champion Charolais Heifer at the Illinois State Fair 🏆
“We’ve had great success using Earlybird in our cattle program. From the very start, with guidance from Chuck Lemenager, it helped our calves get going early, stay healthy, and maintain consistent growth. The cattle stay fresh, sound, and easy to manage, and the performance really shows as the year goes on. Earlybird has been a big part of our feeding program. The combination of their team and high-quality feeds played a role in our success at the Illinois State Fair. We trust Earlybird Nutrition because it delivers results we can see in the barn and in the show ring.”
Thank you, Kaolin and Family, for trusting our team and for the incredible words. We’re proud to be part of your success!
