No so much in the winter, T.....but I'm sure there are leftovers, there, if they desire.

I just called my southern states ag supplier (thanks, Bry). He told me 2:1 Minerals would be the same as dicalcium phosphate. They have that....and I can get the rest of the ingredients there, as well.

I appreciate the heads-up.

Jeff thanks for the ingrediants. Is 2 gallons of this enough for 1 site as this is the law up in Northern, Wi?
This is only as a attractant and not for growing antlers? *I dont know much about this subject*

thx

I'd put out the max I could. How often can you replenish it?

Okay, would someone answer this question - If I walk into a CO-OP, Tractor Supply, Stockdales or a Feed & Seed, am I going to see something labeled "trace minerals"? What minerals are they?

That is a very good question I do not know. When you make this stuff does it have a color to it?
I guess......nm I have no idea. I will ask my lady DNR friend that is for sure.

Tractor supply will know what trace minerals is (and it's red). I have no idea what minerals are in there....but you could do a quick search and probably educate us all on them. They'll also have the salt. They may not have the dicalcium phosphate (mine stopped carrying it).

Thanks, GMMAT. I guess if you've never been around livestock and never used minerals for deer, you just don't have a clue what folks are talking about here.

Now why didn't I think of that?[&o] Selenium, Copper, Zinc, and Phosphorous.
