[QUOTE="simangus23, post: 498816, member: 7772"] Tex you asked for help with your mineral--- dont believe that your feed company puts plenty of Ca in your mineral because "it is cheap" your first Post is confusing and incorrect information: " "Excess calcium also restricts absorption of phosphorus. (wrong) Excess phosphorus will restrict absorption of phosphorus. (wrong) Making mineral is like making a cake and doing it right.(Irrelevant) You need the proper amount of each ingredient balanced as there are many ingredients that effect utilization of other ingredients(true) in both positive and negative ways.(redundant) Let's take some Purina Hi Mg mineral---- 14 % Mg 8% Ca 4 % P and NO Vitam D3 (psssstttt that is a 2:1 ratio) and furthermore you know what that does to Ca uptake? Well I know you don't, but what that does is Phosphorus (P) is elevated in the bloodstream and it is a limiting factor to Ca uptake and without any Vitamin D3 to help with your "balance of ingredients" you get a resulting Milk Fever incident where the cow needs what? CALCUM Call me Professor from now on kid LOL Sim [/QUOTE]
