[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 736355, member: 968"] Who's calling the kettle black??? I'm attacking YOU! let's get real. Your "comeback" makes no sense at all - but children tend to do that. When you get in the real world and learn different places require different managements, then maybe we can hold an adult conversation. On to a better topic. Jim, sounds like you've got a good mix there. As mentioned, we had to raise the level of SE in the mineral to the amounts listed just to get our cattle's blood level up to a normal range. But, this is a custom mix made in our name. Gov't regulations do not allow anyone to put out a product with more than 3 MG per pound fed. In order to convert PPM to MG/#, you multiply the PPM x .4536. So, your 6.6 PPM x .4536 = 2.99376 MG (the 3 MG allowed) Unless there has been gov't reg changes that I haven't heard about, this is the maximum amount available in all OTC products. Our mineral is based on 2 oz/hd/day. I would NEVER recommend for anyone to triple the dose. This was done with blood work & under the supervision of a vet. But,this shows how deficient our area is.
