[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1101482, member: 12607"] It's got nothing to do with copper. You're so fond of cut & paste and hyperlinks SL, here's one for you to spend some time on: [url=http://ag.udel.edu/anfs/faculty/kung/h2s.htm]http://ag.udel.edu/anfs/faculty/kung/h2s.htm[/url] I've seen some polio cases that were potentially linked to excessive S levels in feed - but you've got to consider total dietary S; sulfur, sulfates, sulfides, etc. in forage, feed AND water - have seen case reports of polio in grazing cattle, with no supplemental feed - but very high S levels in the water. I've also seen polio cases that were not associated with high S levels in feed or water; high grain rations can result in production of thiaminase enzymes that cause thiamine depletion. While I'm not necessarily a proponent of converting the bulk of our corn production to ethanol, I feed - and will continue to feed, so long as they're an affordable protein supplement - distiller's grain products. Have done so for the past 7 years; have had no problems, and I anticipate none. Rail on, SL. Tilt away at those windmills. [/QUOTE]
