Grass Tetany

[southerngurl]

I heard there have been some losses in our area. Do most put their cattle on a high magnesium mineral this time of year? I'm adding magnesium sulfate to mine.

Went by co-op today and asked for best minerals for this time of year.
He said the locals were buying high mag minerals and recomended
Powels sweet mag for grass tetany. I'm in Madison county Ark.

I had the vet out last week to draw blood on the goats & give the dogs their rabies shots.. we were just talking and he mentioned that he has seen several cases of grass tetany just recently.. he was wondering if I ever up the magnesium for the does. (we are located just over the AR/MO border.. MO side in Oregon County
