Hello,
 
I know this topic is pretty much done, but I just received an e-mail back
from my uncle, who is a supervisor at the IAMS plant in Nebraska.  He said
that yes, they did switch from rice to corn, but if anything, the overall
quality of the food is better, because they are using more chicken in their
chicken formulas.  All of the employees at the IAMS plant are pretty proud
of the quality of their food, and if he says the quality is better, than I
would assume it is.  Although I would have preferred the rice over the
chicken, ferret wise.
 
Just thought I would throw my 2 cents in.
 
Dooks and kisses to your fuzzies,
