[QUOTE="JMichal, post: 499950, member: 5744"] You don't need to have it custom made. If you know what your feeding you can buy a commercial bag mineral that fits what you are feeding. A 12-12 may be great if your on pasture or hay. If you are on full grain feed you may want something that is a 2 to 1, or 3 to 1 calcium to phos ratio. If you have 3rd trimester or lactating cattle they should be getting something with about 12-8. And then you need to switch to a high mag now to help with Tetany. 2 cows allready died last week from it here in SW MO. Vet Confirmed. I went and got a mag phos that I use in spring and fall, when coolseason grasses take off. I think it helps to switch em around some, because different minerals stay in the body longer or shorter.
