If the mineral was deposited for the sole purpose of farming cattle, even though the cattle are now gone, wouldn't the deposit count as natural agricultural practices???
It was never put there for attracting deer from what I read in your post.
This is what my questions were about. The blocks were put there for cattle and are about three years old. They were not put there for deer. I know it is illegal to bait and feed deer in IL, but I am doing neither. The deer just use it.
