[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1389666, member: 9096"] Contrary to what seems to be popular belief, most minerals are not self limiting, and thus unless the tubs have a lot of salt (which is one of the few self limiting things out there), they'll eat as much as they please. I got a 250 lb tub for my 4 heifer calves in November.. they just about finished it already! I'll say they aren't getting another one!.. I think it's good for them when they come off the cow and to get them used to eating hay and a bit of a boost when it's cold out, but I'll only do it for calves. I want to give my future cows the best start I can, after that they're on their own [/QUOTE]
