I make my own too. I can make about 125-150 pounds for what it cost for one 25 pound commercial bag.

I just replenished my site yesterday and it was absolutely decimated.

I used to be able to buy all the ingredients at my local tractor supply company. I can't buy trace minerals there, anymore, so I'm going to have to find abother source. I'm assuming I can buy them at any place that deals with cattle products (more on the lines of a farm center). I'll let you know what I find out.

I was mistaken. I can't buy dicalcium phosphate from tractor supply, anymore.

Gotta get a new line on that stuff.

While your at it, don't foreget to put out two mineral blocks with signs... "Bucks" and "Does". This is extremely important so that you feed each sex the correct minerals.

I see you're bored also.

It is that time, thanks for the reminder. I found a natural lick while shed hunting this season. I think ill add extra to it as well.

How often do you replenish your licks?

I try to do mine once a month, but may have to do it more with the traffic I've been getting lately.

Jeff, if you have an Agway near you check there for the Dicalcium Phosphate. That or any feed store should be able to get it for you. I had to order mine last time, but it only took a few days to get it.
