[QUOTE="farmwriter, post: 680108, member: 10309"] It's been my experience that if they don't really get into mineral in the first several days, they're not going to. I don't know if they think it's stale or contaminated or what, but sometimes they get a batch they just don't like. But Cypress is right; loose is generally better. We've gone to the mineral feeders with the rubber lids and really like them. Just tie the tops up (with hay string or whatever) for a week or so and they'll get the hang of rooting under the rubber.
