[QUOTE="norriscathy, post: 181083, member: 2961"] This is really nuts! People have been feeding 2-n-1 and 4-n-1, etc for hundreds of years in every state we've been in from Florida, to Georgia, to Arkansas, to Louisiana, to Texas. Can't believe no one seems to have heard of it. Certainly nothing new! Check with your local feed store or mill. NO; cows do not need 1# of salt per day, salt is a limiter only, it does not hurt them and it allows you to put out feed only once or twice a week. I don't know of anyboby that doesn't feed this stuff. Piligrims and Purina both tried to substitute fish meal for salt as a limiter and didn't work; just smelled bad and the cows got use to it after a few weeks. [/QUOTE]
