[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 1135256, member: 839"] I put out a loose mineral year round. I purchase it from our local co-op/Southern States. It is formulated for our geographical area, and the spring mix is higher in Magnesium. I don't put much faith in those red 'mineral' blocks. Those are more salt than they are mineral. My cows go to the mineral as they need it. There are times when they eat it like candy and other times when they barely touch the stuff. Some folks like the name brand stuff, Purina etc. I would speak to/with cattlemen or suppliers in your area to see what may be appropriate for your situation. As your mineral needs may be very differnt from what mine, here in Virginia, might be. Katherine [/QUOTE]
