[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1574039, member: 37967"] Don’t forget that I’m feeding my mineral in conjunction with a high performance grain mix as well. The grain I feed our herd, which is now down to about 2-3 pounds per head since we have grass coming on strong, has in simple terms, the total package for rumen health in our cattle. They are getting prebiotics and probiotics. I’ve posted the tag before if anyone needs the mix. Our program is not for everyone. It’s safe to say that our cattle have every last thing they need to reach their genetic potential. I’ve spoken with multiple well informed sources about Rumensin, and from everything I’ve gathered, it allows for, or helps for a more efficient rumen. Our cattle simply process more of what goes into their mouth with our setup. Every bite counts. As for fly control, it’s a non stop battle because I cannot get my neighbors on the same plan I’m on. I prefer to try and kill the flies from the inside out and then use a Vet Gun 3-4 times during the peak months to round up the program. I’ve used Vitaferm Heat and I saw no noticeable difference in the amount of flies, I had to use ear tags and Vet gun as well. When dealing with the flies, the mineral with Rabon should be in their systems starting early March, to be most effective. I’m trying to deal with all kinds of flies, not just horn flies. [/QUOTE]
