Vitalix mineral lick for cattle

Once a year I like to supplement the cattle's hay with a mineral lick.  Gives them extra vitamins.  I give the cattle this near the end of their pregnancy.  Yesterday I put out a 250 lb tub.   The cattle love licking this.  The molasses in the mix is appealing to them.

Of course... Haynes.   On the first day he was pushing the tub around the corral.  I was going to get my camera to take a video of him pushing the tub but then he flipped the tub completely over.  I had to go in the corral and tip the tub back upright.  By the time I got the camera he had left the tub.  So, no video.

Today the cattle pushed the tub around only a little bit.  Here are some photos of them licking from the tub.
