A 550 million year old source of minerals and trace elements for your livestock/horses. Mined from the vast and ancient Himalayan mountains, these salt licks must be the purest form of salt available.

The Benefit Of Salt

A 550 million year old source of minerals and trace elements for your livestock/horses. Mined from the vast and ancient Himalayan mountains, these salt licks must be the purest form of salt available. The distinctive rose pink colour comes from the salts mineral content, such as iron, potassium and magnesium, which are all vital for maintaining health. Mass produced salt licks are produced using salt with minerals added in the manufacturing process. Himalayan rock salt licks are literally 'rock hard’, this means that livestock and horses are unable to bite chunks off the block, a problem that can occur with the softer ’pressed’ salt licks. These licks are also much more weather resistant and will not dissolve into a mush when left out in the rain, which means they can be safely left outside in the field for horses or cows to ‘self dose’. Our experience has shown that horses and cows do prefer these to other salt licks.

Cows/sheep/goats and horses all have a very well defined appetite for sodium chloride (SALT)only surpassed by the need for water.  Because the majority of plants do not provide sufficient sodium for the livestock/horses needs and may lack adequate chloride, salt supplementation is a vital part of any animal’s nutritional requirement.

Trace Minerals

Trace minerals are now universally recognised as being essential in the livestock/horses diet.  There are seven trace elements that have shown to be needed to be supplemented.  These elements are Copper, Cobalt, Zinc, Iodine, Iron, Manganese and selenium.  These additives are only required in very small amounts, measured in parts per million, thus the name “trace minerals or trace elements.”

Deficiencies in trace minerals do in fact occur more frequently than is usually recognised by the majority of livestock/horse owners.  This sub-clinical deficiency is far more wide spread than acute deficiencies.  Sub-clinical deficiency can lead to under performance by the livestock/horse, for example, reduced growth rates, loss of feed efficiency and a depressed immune system.  This can then result in inefficient performance.  There is, therefore, an important role for mineral and trace element supplementation to help to maximise equine health.

Along with the hidden performance losses discussed, animals short of salt and essential elements can show ‘pica’ or depraved appetite symptoms.  These deficiency indicators can include licking wood and stones, eating soil or bark.  Horses constantly searching the hedge rows in good grass pasture can often be telling the owners that there is a mineral deficiency in its diet.

There is increasing evidence to show that many minerals and trace mineral nutrients are needed at higher levels to improve the livestock/horses immune system to enable them to cope with infections.  Sodium, chloride, zinc, copper, selenium, and magnesium have already been shown to be helpful in this regard. Because salt is self-limiting, it’s inclusion in compound feeds means that horses, already well supplemented, will take less of the free choice salt, while other livestock/horses on a more basic ration will take more salt and so receive the essential minerals and trace elements for their daily needs.

Average size but very durable
Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My dog broke new bones within an hour of opening them. He is a lab so strong chewer. We bought a Kong tug toy months ago….zero rips, tears or knicks at all so when looking for a bone option, Kong is where we went. So far so good after two days. The rubber chewing sound can get annoying but totally worth it to not worry about it breaking and my dog choking on it or hurting him in some way. Safety was a priority and Kong nailed it. I was hoping it would be a bit bigger based on pictures but it fits his mouth just fine. Being rubber, it is a bit heavy and clunky it your dog likes to retrieve like mine, but if you don’t mind the thud, it is not bad to toss. My dog loves it and it’s is holding up so we are both happy

I purchased a Kong Extreme Dog Toy at Tractor Supply and it lasted for several weeks with no signs of damage and then my dog lost it. So I went on the search for more Kong Extreme toys for powerful chewers on Amazon. I have a 60 lb. American Straffordshire Pit and he is a fierce chewer. Most chew toys can make it for a day with some damage but by day 2 the fun is over. For him because the toy is torn to bits and for me because I have to pick up the remnants. I have learned not to get him anything fuzzy - he will rip the fuzz off and I have learned not to get him anything with a squeaker because he will not stop chewing until he finds the squeaker and rip it out. He had the end of the Kong Extreme Goodie Bond Dog Toy off in less than 30 minutes and that was alternating between the Wubba toy for fetching and the bone for chewing, I can tell the Wubba isn't going to last anytime if I let him sit down and chew on it so I had to keep taking it away from him. He likes to catch but he doesn't like to fetch. When I took the bone out of the package I was more worried about the center as it seemed very flimsy and I had doubts it would make it but my dog concentrated on the holes on the ends (with no snacks in them) and when he laid down to chew on it, he was able to rip the end off in a matter of minutes, This is also listed as for power chewers. I have other Kong toys I have ordered for him because he loves to play and chew but I can hardly afford to pay $8 to $10 per toy for him to have half a hour of chewing fun. I went back to TSC for a Kong Extreme Dog Toy and I tried one of the classic Kongs. The classic had one end missing in less than an hour. A Pit Bull breeder said the only thing he has found his dogs can play with and not destroy are bowling balls. He keeps his dogs in kennels and in a barn and my dog is a house dog so since I don't live in a bowling alley I know that I would wind up wishing he would only chew it up instead of roll it into every piece of furniture or a wall. I had such high hopes for the Kong Extreme but it is said to have a dog get attached to a toy then have to take it away from him every ten to fifteen minutes because a power chew toy can't hold up to chewing. Off to find an alternative to Kong,,,,, one toy out of five holding up is not a good recommendation and very expensive to try to find something the dog can enjoy and not destroy.

KONG; consistently sturdy!
Color: bone, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
This toy is small enough for my 11 pound puppy and he loves it. It's also sturdy enough (as KONG products always are) to withstand his terrier jaws and ability to destroy most toys in under 5 minutes. Keeps him busy for hours.
