Jim they'll need and use the mag during the times of lush grazing such as winter pasture you've planted and early spring grazing so it is good to switch to a Hi-Mag during those times. The cah ration doesn't matter that much as they don't affect the mag utilization too much. Just don't get one that has highly elevated potassium and sodium or it will inhibit the use of the mag. There are companies that do formulate minerals for the "seasons' but often hard to find one formulated specifically for a specific situation unless you can find a mill willing to make small batches. Jeanne glad to see you're using the chelates. You usually don't see the damage done from cattle not being fed minerals until a wreck is already in progress. Cow health, conception rates, health of newborns, early death of calves, weaning weights, etc...very inexpensive insurance even for a very large opeation.
