Mixing Salt

Mixing Salt is a high-purity, fine-screened granulated salt designed specifically for blending into livestock rations or custom mineral mixes. It serves as an essential nutrient and a natural intake regulator, ensuring your livestock receive the sodium and chloride necessary for vital bodily functions.

Description

Mixing Salt is a foundational component for any farm-mixed feed or custom nutritional program. Sodium and chloride are critical “macrominerals” that cannot be produced by the animal’s body. They are essential for maintaining osmotic pressure in cells, supporting nerve impulse transmission, and driving the movement of nutrients into cells. Without adequate salt, livestock often experience “pica” (licking or eating non-food items), reduced appetite, and poor weight gains.

This salt is processed to a specific consistency that blends evenly with grains, proteins, and minerals, preventing “settling” or separation in the feed bunk. It is free of additives that might interfere with other nutrients, making it a safe and reliable choice for cattle, swine, poultry, and horses. Beyond its nutritional value, salt acts as a natural consumption regulator—by adjusting the salt level in a free-choice mix, you can effectively manage how much of a specific mineral or supplement your livestock consume daily.

Salt (Sodium Chloride).

  • Custom Mixing: Mix into the daily ration at a rate prescribed by a nutritionist or based on specific species requirements (typically 0.25% to 0.50% of the total dry matter intake).

  • Free Choice: If used as a stand-alone supplement, provide in a clean, dry mineral box or salt lick station.

  • Water: Crucial: Always provide unlimited access to clean, fresh water when feeding salt, as salt increases the animal’s water requirement.

Products FAQ

Why should I use Mixing Salt instead of just a salt block?

Mixing salt allows for uniform distribution throughout the feed. This ensures that every animal gets their required daily intake in every bite, whereas blocks rely on the animal licking the salt, which can lead to inconsistent consumption.

Yes. Mixing salt is safe and necessary for cattle, horses, swine, and poultry. It is the most universal mineral in animal nutrition.

No, this is a “plain” white salt. If your herd requires iodine, cobalt, or other trace minerals, you should look for a “Trace Mineralized Salt” or add a dedicated mineral premix to your ration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the product.

Calves can be introduced to 16% Calf Creep Feed as early as 4 to 6 weeks of age, once they begin showing interest in nibbling solid feed. Early exposure helps calves gradually adapt from a milk-based diet to grain and forage, supporting proper rumen development. Starting creep feed early can also reduce stress at weaning and encourage steady growth, especially when pasture quality is declining or milk production from the cow begins to drop.

I source my grain for animal and livestock feeds based on local suppliers. Often, I purchase directly from local farmers, especially if they produce seasonal crops. Additionally, I buy high-quality feed from larger agricultural supply companies when necessary to meet the specific needs of my animals.

To check the freshness of your feed product, start by examining its smell, as fresh feed usually has a natural, earthy scent. If it smells sour or musty, it could indicate spoilage. Next, check the appearance for any discoloration, mold, or clumping, which may suggest exposure to moisture. Feel the feed to ensure it’s not damp, as excess moisture can promote mold growth. Always check the expiration date, if available, and ensure the feed has been stored properly in a cool, dry place. Finally, look out for pests, as their presence is a clear sign of compromised feed. Regular checks and proper storage will help maintain the feed’s freshness and nutritional value.

Vital Signs in Horses

As a horse owner, you are the first line of defense. While your vet is the expert, you are the one who knows your horse’s “normal.” In an emergency, being able to provide accurate vitals can save your vet time and potentially save your horse’s life.

Horse Cooling Tips

When the humidity rises and the sun beats down, horses feel the heat just as much as we do—if not more. Because horses are large-bodied animals with heavy muscle mass, they generate a massive amount of internal heat, especially during work.

A Guide to Body Condition Scoring Your Horse

When it comes to horse health, “looking good” is subjective. One rider’s “fit” is another’s “thin,” and what looks like a “healthy curve” might actually be a metabolic red flag.

Body Condition Scoring Your Horse

Ever looked at your horse and wondered if that “roundness” is healthy muscle or a few too many flakes of alfalfa? While we all love a “shiny” horse, there is a fine line between well-covered and overweight.
