I supplement my cows( 6 bred beef cows, 1 1000# heifer, and 3 8 month old heifers that I plan on keeping as relacements) hay with lick tubs. I had been using "Mintrate XL tubs"($90)but they didnt seem to improve my cows condition at all, lasted a decent time as long as the didnt get rained on. I started using "Crystalix"($100+/-) 30% Replacement heifer licks last fall and the seem to last 3-4 weeks, and my cows really have improved since having them, but the cost is high. I purchased a 30% lick tub from Fleetfarm last week tuesday for $54, as a trial. Well, it is over 1/2 gone already. Wow, not very economical compared to the crystalix. What do some of you other cattle people use, and what are your opinions? This seems to be an example of "you get what you pay for".
