Time to start thinking about deer minerals
As we get ready to head into late winter, deer mineral supplements are on the mind of most active land mangers. Keep in mind that calcium and phosphorus are needed in the largest quantities for antler development and milk production for healthier fawns. Magnesium supplementation is often needed during spring green up. Zinc, Copper, Cobalt, and Selenium are very common micro nutrient deficiencies that can hinder the health of your deer herd. Vitamins can be helpful to aid in absorption of minerals, especially during times of drought when deer can have a hard time making their own. Ignore hype and read the label. Below is mine, it is certainly not the only one out there, but it is full of what deer need, and has no fillers like most of my competitors. I challenge you to compare to your current product and step up to best deer mineral on the market.
