Hi,
When we got our Ouessants the very nice people we bought them from gave me lots of helpful instructions including giving them a yellow mineral lick, which we have done, we bought a yellow Rockies lick.
They don't seem to be touching it though, so now I'm worrying that they will be missing out nutritionally. Is there another lick that they'd like better?
I have a sticky, treacly lick that I bought for my pygmy goats, I think it's a general horse lick and not specific for goats as I know they need copper and sheep mustn't have it, but they really seem to like it much more than their red Rockies lick which they also have.
Should I give my sheep a similar lick, maybe a stronger smelling treacley lick too? Or will they lick the yellow Rockies if they need it?
Thanks very much
