Dun, I bought 250 gallons of Mix 30 and put it out to the cows. They all lapped it up like cats at a milk bowl. One cow couldn't just run her tongue in it like the rest of the cows, she had to lap it to the point she would put her tongue in the puddin and then swing it towards the front of her face. Of course she had her tongue run out as far as she could get it. When she would do it, she would sling it out about 2 feet. It was funny to watch. I know now to lower the level a bit in the pasture where she is. She seemed to enjoy eating it that way.
This liquid has a rusty smell. I touched it to the tip of my tongue and it had a salty, iron, silage taste. I bet the iron level is really high in it. They said it doesn't freeze because of the acidity. Now all I can say to that is that ain't right. I can put a gallon of margaritas in the freezer and it will freeze. Nothing gets more acid than that. After touching the mix to my tongue (which I won't do again) the salt level is high. That is why they stand over the water trough after licking it. But the cows really like it. They aren't taking it down fast, but they do lick it a little each day. I am anxious to see how it does. If they seem to do well, I will pick up 500 gallons next time, but as little as it takes, it will be a while. The price wasn't bad at all. I just put it out in water troughs like you suggested. Thanks for telling us about it.
