[QUOTE="Silver, post: 1460018, member: 12520"] You are of course quite welcome to lump trace minerals together with mineral. And it could well be that in your particular situation that TM salt provides only 1/2 a days worth of trace mineral for your animals well being (is there not a half days worth in the feed they are getting?). It could also be entirely possible that for others the available trace minerals in TM salt are adequate to top off their animals needs. It seems to me that many people feed loose mineral because they know their feed is lacking, because conception rates are low, or because herd health is not optimum. But if these problems are not present and excellent feed or forage is available at all times (and I know this is the exception rather than the rule) I have to wonder why one would choose to go to the added expense of feeding more that TM salt?
