Ok so I've feed just the generic Stockade or Tractor Supply(ranchers pride I think) brand mineral for 5yrs now as free choice mineral. I've figured its better than what alot of guys feed in the trace mineral blocks or just nothing. My dad fed mineral much like I do with the addition of bag salt.
Is the Purina WindnRain or Nutrena Right Now minerals worth the extra $? I mean the stuff I've been buying is $14/bag versus $24-30/bag for the Purina. The guys at the feed stores swear you'll have better conception rates, easier calving, even a bit better weaning weights due to better milk. I do get hi-mag in spring and general purpose rest of year.
