Cattle Farming/Ranching: How does a Free Choice Mineral Feeder Work?
What happens here
Obtain various bags of essential minerals and vitamins. Each bag should be clearly labeled (e.g., 'Vitamin V4', 'Boron', 'Alkaline Neutralizer CL', 'Selenium', 'Zinc', 'Manganese', 'Molybdenum', 'Iron', 'Cobalt', 'Potassium', 'Magnesium', 'Calcium', 'Phosphorus'). Carefully cut open each bag and pour the contents into its designated compartment within the feeder. The kit of minerals provided should offer enough to fill the feeder with spares for future replenishment.
Goal: Load each compartment with the appropriate mineral supplement
