Has anybody used multimin before?
I have heard good reviews from some of the locals.

New borns get a shot of it here. How beneficial is it? I am not sure. But at the dose for a new calf it is a pretty cheap method of insuring they have all the minerals they need.
I give it to sale barn cows I buy because I don't know their mineral status. Can't say it works or not but some of these poor cows that I buy turn around pretty quick with a shot of it along with some vitamins and a good worming.

Bulls have access to Purina Wind and Rain year round, at BSE time they get a shot of Multi-min90.
Any feeder that gets treated get Multi-min90 also.
Like bird dog said; sale barn cows and cows with unknown back ground all get a Multi-min90 boost.
Several years ago when it first came out. We Semen tested 6 bulls. One flunked. Soft testicle, possible infection. Have him Nuflor and Multi-min90. 45 days later on retest he tested better than the other 5 had.
I've been a believe ever since.

I've never used it. But now I'm intrigued. With the exception of the bulls, every cow & retained heifer was born & raised here, so no issue with not knowing previous history. My herd always has access to loose mineral specifically for our area (made by a local Co-Op), and includes CTC just prior to tick season.

Do you have to get a VFD for that? I had to get a VFD to get CTC in my wind and rain for Anaplas.
Yes. Vet has it on file, we just review the number of cattle each year & he faxes it to the Co-Op.
I'm a firm believer for newborns. I used to give to cows 30 days prior to breeding, but cattle get Concept Aid 24/7, so I don't think it is beneficial for my herd..

my cows are on on concept aide year around, and everyone gets a multimin shot 30-45 days prior to breeding or ET. I am a firm believer in both of these products
For the people using concept aide was there a noticeable difference between it and other types of mineral? I’m not as good at keeping mineral out as I should be during the winter so give multimin 90 before breeding season. Can’t say I’ve had a noticeable difference but it makes me feel better.
Cheap insurance in my book
