Sticker Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Was wondering if anybody had a mineral lick recipe I could use. I'm just using plain red trace mineral salt now, but I was wanting to use something else that nobody else is using on my hunting lease to draw them to my lick instead.

wtnhunt Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Think this one is the same one that horntagger posted here probably 7 years ago http://www.mosportsmen.com/hunting/deer/minrecipe.htm. Ingredients: Makes 200 lbs. for about $23.00 1 part Di-calcium phosphate, this is a dairy feed additive bought at feed stores. Comes in 50lb Bags at around $11.00 you need one bag. 2 parts Trace mineral salt, the red and loos kind without the medications. Comes in 50lb Bags at around $5.00 you need two bags. 1 part Stock salt, ice cream salt. Comes in 50lb Bags at around $2.00 you need one bag. Directions -Use a 3 pound or similar size coffee can to use as your measure for each part of the mix. -Mix all together well but not until read to use, keep ingredients separate until ready to put to use. -Dig or tear up a circle in the soil about 36 inches wide and about 6 inches deep. -Mix your mineral mixture with the soil. Maintenance: -Replenish in 6 months with fresh supply of mineral, and then each year there after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
