Kenton Decker Actually this statement reaks of Justin Rhodes. No animals do not h ave a clue that they need to lick copper in a plastic tray or manganese or selenium!!! I'd like to strangle the moron that started this idea!!! If you read any research material all mammals require basic vitamins & minerals. Without them they can have growth problems or become sick. But even humans don't know what the F they need to eat!!! That's why nutritionally balanced feed mixes are good to feed to all cattle -- so they receive micronutrients which may be deficient in the soil which their pasture grasses are growing in.

I've seen cows use a lot of one mineral in a paddock and use a totally different mineral in a second paddock, when the soil and vegetation was tested in both paddocks, they come back as being deficient in the minerals the cows were eating the most of on those paddocks.

I don't know if you have coyotes, but if there around they can pass on disease by there feces. They are a diseased animal causing birth defects and aborting as well. It doesn't matter whether your a large or small farm it hurts you bottom line and can affect you personally. It's hard not have emotions.

Glad you came through the worst of it! We have had mineral deficiencies in copper and selenium too! We had been using MultiMin90 via the vet, but they hated those shots (they stung I believe). We used Redmond Salt Selenium 90 free choice, but that didn't address all mineral needs and copper. We now have free choice loose chelated heifer/calf mineral from Crystal Creek in Wisconsin. It is more biologically available and has a selenium yeast that is also easier to uptake. We blood test the same cow every few months via Washington State University to monitor the levels. Not as accurate as tissue test (after harvest or via necropsy) but does show if something is going on. Best wishes as you move forward! Moo!

I wasn't surprised about the selenium as we thought the calf that died was deficient like you said in the video. That means your fields are deficient in selenium and copper, but don't be surprised if their supplemental hay and grain is deficient as well because this is becoming a national crisis. Shots are a good treatment, but do your research to find ways to enrich your land. Maybe UCDavis might have some suggestions? I've heard comfrey pulls minerals from down deep to the surface, is edible, and hard to kill. But soil testing is the only way to know if you even have any down there to pull up.

Interesting theory with comfrey. In Poland, a lot of comfrey and many other herbs grow on meadows. Where the grass itself grows is a pasture. But even there everyone tries to plant as many species of grass as possible. I have never heard of cows getting sick from eating in a meadow or pasture. Strange ... We provide mine salt rich in microelements in large lumps. Cattle like to lick it and make up for micronutrient deficiencies. For cows they are of a different composition, for sheep with a different composition and for horses with a different composition.
@suzisaintjames5 жыл бұрын
@@rawa5457 , the nutrients are becoming more and more stripped from the land every year and farmers do very little to replace trace minerals like selenium. That's why the cattle are sick ... not enough nutrients. Comfrey has a very long tap root, so all the green can be eaten and it will come back time after time. Because this tap root is so long, it can reach nutrients that are out of reach of other plants. 💝☀🌵

@@suzisaintjames Thanks. Alfalfa works similarly, has a long root and reaches the ingredients washed out by water in the earth. In our country, hay meadows are used for 2-3 years, then they should be plowed, fertilized with dung and cultivate something else so that it is possible to sow grass again in a while. Natural meadows are not plowed, they are durable, but they should be fertilized with intensive use for hay. Otherwise the grass grows poorly. If the soil lacks micronutrients, it means that it takes too much from it and gives too little, it should be supplemented with: composts, manure, wood ash, dolomite, basalt or stone flour. In various stone flours there is a whole range of trace elements and trace elements. I have no idea if there are such powders of crushed rocks in the US States. we have used them for a long time.

Glad they're better, but I bet that was a lot of work. Good lesson to all of us to pay attention to our animals and take care of things quickly. Our female goat will probably not get bred this year because she had a large intestinal worm load and I didn't even know.

Hi. I'm really happy that you didn't lose your herd. But given that you run a fairly small operation...you really could have. After watching your video, I was really surprised that you did not treat all of your stock with the broad spectrum, least expensive antibiotic after the first fatality. Especially considering that the owner of the herd by you had dead cows on his hands already too. I understand not wanting to throw antibiotics at everything, but when your herd members is dying...definitive treatment immediately isnt Overkill at all. When I was a child if one of us coughed, sneezed or was too Warm to the touch...every kid Caught Hell with all of those home remedies...lol Unpleasant though it was...disease containment was achieved. Take Care.

We lack the same minerals in north Alabama. Started using Sweetlix Copperhead mineral. Tested the cows last two years all are good now.

That sounds like what I need. Is that a tub or loose mineral?

@@farmertylerranch4399 its loose mineral. I'm not sure if they offer it in a block. Its about $22 dollars a bag for the high mag version at my local CO-OP.
