I want to know your guys opinions on whether it would be worth it to feed both amaferm and diamond v yeast to my show steers.
Also if anyone could give me insight into how amaferm works that would be greatly appreciated. I know yeast feeds the good bacteria in the rumen, so does amaferm do the same thing or does amaferm in fact add more bacteria to the rumen?

From what I can tell amaferm is actually a microbial.  This means it populates and boosts the rumen with fungi and the incresed branching of the fungi allows for more digestion that in turn allows for more bacteria.  I don't think I would bother with the diamond V.  You would have a better result using amaferm and say bovatec.
