[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1268582, member: 12607"] Agree that cows don't 'know what they need', and will not just consume that amount. During winter, when we're limit-feeding hay/ddg, and the cows are standing around for 20+ hours awaiting their next feeding... they'll overconsume mineral like crazy, just out of boredom. I cut it 50/50 with white salt just to limit consumption. However, during the grazing season, I wouldn't dilute my mineral mix - sometimes they go through it like gangbusters, other times it seems like they don't consume much for several days at a time.
