But beef herds use salt licks at will. Added to feed, the animal
has no choice but to ingest it.

you haven't the faintest idea what a mineralised block is have you.

Humour me.

no thank you,

Of course not, because a 'mineralized block', is a 'salt lick', stupid.

No, it is not. It may contain a large percentage of salt but it is not used
for the same purpose or should it be used for all domestic animals.

Fine, it's a fancier version of the same sort of thing.

[..]

Mineralized FEED blocks? What are you saying here? Are these
'mineralized feed blocks' like little sugar cubes scattered in the grass?

There are licks AND feed blocks. Both weigh about fifty pounds. The feed
blocks must be protected from the weather or they will crumble and become
inedible. The licks are solid enough to be either simply dropped in the
pasture or put in a salt block holder.

Fine, but the animals take of it ad-lib, which is different
from adding minerals to feed, which was my point.

Nope, can't find a SINGLE reference to the use of mineralised
FEED blocks in the UK.

Jim added that later, because I was right wrt mineralised
blocks being used ad-lib.

Didn't you, liar Jim?
