Minrosa makes salt and mineral licks in every format an Australian property needs, from a 200g block for a kennel run up to a 19kg boulder that sits in a paddock and stays there.
Rope-hung licks (1kg, 3kg, 6kg) are for stalls and yards - the rope keeps the lick off the ground where it would otherwise pick up dirt and dissolve in the first shower. Compressed blocks (2kg, 10kg) are pressed harder, so they last longer with a horse that treats a lick as a chew toy. Loose salt - fine milled or granulated, both 5kg - goes into feed for a horse working hard or sweating through summer. The Cattle Boulder is the paddock option for stock.
Choosing between them - a lick covers baseline sodium and lets the animal self-regulate. A horse in hard work replacing heavy sweat losses will not get there by licking; that wants loose salt in the feed, or an electrolyte if you are also short on potassium and chloride. Whichever you use, clean water has to be available at all times.
