I feed the ADM Ampt mineral. It's expensive too, my rep that sells it told me to put loose salt beside it so they can have the salt they want without having to get it through the mineral.
I said I've always heard don't have salt or they won't eat enough mineral, his response was the "other" brands taste so bad they eat it to get the salt.
I don't know about all that but I'm doing good with loose salt and loose mineral in the same feeder. I'm also putting 1 pound of iodine to every 50 pounds of both. That helps out too.
I never buy any kind of tubs, I feel they are a ripoff, could be wrong but I'm sticking to it. Free choice good mineral and salt bolstered with iodine and I'll meet their nutritional needs with grazing, grain, byproducts and hay.
I run front pasture young cattle, trader cows that come in with the grim reaper riding in the trailer with them and stockers.
They all have different needs at different times of the year and I try to do what they need.
And I'll never but out blocks for anything but horses, they get white and trace mineral blocks.
A block for a cow is wasting her time. She needs to be harvesting grass instead of licking a block.
