Which Sweetlix?

My feedstore has a sweetlix livestock mineral but it also says horse Equalizer.... can I use this version for the goats? I didn't see urea listed as an ingredient.

If they carry one kind of sweetlix that means that they can order bags of the goat mineral as well. Ask them to order the meatmaker 16:8 mix... I believe sweetllix also has a mix for dairy goats, too, but I don't know what it's called.

The loose minerals work better. The goat can ingest them much easier, IMHO. Make this feeder...

It looks like the Horse Equalizer is lower in A and D vit....
