As a grain, the copper and selenium are really high.
Would you feed this free choice like a mineral or would you feed this as a pellet on the milk stand?
Personally I don't like it because it is a weird combination. Maybe someone else has used it to good effect?
BTW, I just was reading tags (love to read tags) of a Mare Maintenance feed at 12% protein with lovely levels of copper, selenium, and zinc and it included vitamins AND three types of organic lactobacillus. $14.99/bag. Not too bad for the quality. It is a Nutrena product.

It looks like something you would put into a feed mix at a certain rate. I had some pellets like it (not same brand or anything, just similar concept) that I was feeding my does when some sheep lived with them at one point.
