2/B or not 2/B
Well-known member
This is a custom mix for my area, but I was just wondering if anything about it stands out good or bad, and what is the significance of the added protein? Is that why it's so expensive? I like it, the cattle like it, but they go through it quick and it's not cheap. It looks like dark brown sand/dirt, smells like licorice, costs $12 for 50 lbs. Recommended intake is 1.5 lbs per head per day, but I don't think they take quite that much. Just checking b/c I have a couple of other options and just want to go with something high quality to complement the native pasture...
