RE: Mineral Licks
slobbyrobby........I got that same recipe from this website about a year and a half ago. Its way way cheaper and the deer work it over pretty good. Some spots more than others. I haven't figured out why they use one site more than another yet, but I'm working on it! I have 6 mineral licks on our property.
Example of savings: I used to spend about $20 for 25 lb bags of a commercial brand or about $320 a year!
A couple weeks ago I picked up 1000 lbs. bagged in 50 lb bags at my local feed mill. COST $141.00 tax included. Thats $14.10 per 100 lb. bag. Now my 400 pounds of minerals cost $56.40! WOW!
You don't need to get 1000 lbs from your local feed mill, usually they mix batched of 500 lbs and up. I got 1000 lbs because a friend wanted to put some out on his property.
Good Luck!
