Evening princess i know thy have been refered to as mineral licks but they are energy licks based on mollases plus urea to encourage sheep to eat rough grass.There are quite a few out there all good crystalix/rumenco supalyx in plastic tubs or rumenco blocks in plastic bags all differant prices.Near to lambing rumenco lifeline seems to increase lamb vigour and colostrum.

They can put on condition  pre -tupping or early pregnancy but since your gims are in late pregnancy they will help hold condition and the mollases will have a slight laxative effect (good ).
