I mostly use deer cocaine and really thats the only "minerals" i use but i am just curious on what you guys use and where you can buy it or how you make it?

thanks

I make my own.

1 part sodium bicarbonate
1 part dicalcium phosphate
2 parts trace mineral

Dig a hole, dump the stuff in, mix it up in the dirt. The "part" can be anything....I use a big coffee can.

where do you get that stuff?

Feed store, and it's dirt cheap. You can mix over 100 pounds for less than 30 small bills.

WOW, i might just have to try that!

Does it work pretty good?
Have any pics of the results?

thanks

No pics, but yes it works extremely well, especially in the spring and summer. We have 3 of them on our farm and the last time I looked at them they were giant mud holes.....Yes, they work.

I will say if you are looking for a mineral/attractant, this may not be the deal. They seem to lay off these licks in the fall.

Ok, but for being that cheap its worth a try!

anyone else?
what about homemade feeders?

you guys make any of those yourslef

pics please!

how much corn will that hold?
