Crystalyx HE 30 Tub 200 lb

Crystalyx HE-30% Low Moisture Livestock Block (200 lb Tub)

Maximize your herd’s performance and squeeze every ounce of value out of your forage program. Crystalyx HE-30% (High Energy 30%) is a premium, high-density protein and energy supplement designed specifically for beef cattle, sheep, and goats grazing on low-quality pastures, crop residues, or late-season stockpiled forages.

Manufactured using a precise low-moisture cooking process, this lick tub contains less than 5% moisture, creating a rock-hard, glass-like texture. Because livestock cannot bite, chew, or scoop the product, this dense structure naturally limits daily consumption to a controlled lick-only rate. The highly palatable molasses base delivers a concentrated 30% crude protein profile paired with essential vitamins and trace minerals, fueling beneficial rumen microbes to dramatically increase forage intake, accelerate fiber digestion, and improve overall feed efficiency.

Key Features & Benefits

• Concentrated 30% Protein Blend: Combines premium protein sources to support muscle maintenance, body condition scoring, and milk production when winter pastures or native grasses lose their nutritional punch.

• 100% Weather-Proof Performance: The cooked, dehydrated block configuration completely resists wind, rain, and extreme temperatures. It won't melt in blistering summer heat or freeze into an unusable block in winter.

• Predictable, Self-Limiting Intake: Eliminates over-consumption and hand-feeding labor, naturally regulating daily intake to a cost-effective, predictable rate per head.

• Boosts Roughage Digestion: Stimulates essential rumen microflora, allowing your livestock to break down and extract maximum energy from coarser, highly fibrous stems and stalks.

• Labor-Saving 200 lb Tub: Delivered in a rugged, non-returnable plastic container. Simply drop it into the pasture or pen to give your herd continuous nutritional support while cutting out daily chore time.

Pasture Management & Feeding Guidelines

• Herd Ratio: Provide one 200 lb block for every 20 to 30 head of cattle, or 50 to 60 head of sheep/goats. Always place a minimum of two blocks per pasture to ensure less dominant or timid animals get their fair share.

• Expected Intake: Cattle will typically consume a self-limiting 0.25 to 0.75 lbs per head daily, while small ruminants consume proportionally less.

• Grazing Distribution Strategy: Position blocks near watering troughs or bedding grounds initially. Once livestock adapt to the block, move the tubs to underutilized or remote zones of the pasture to encourage uniform grazing and forage cleanup.

• Nutritional Connection: Animals must have continuous access to a plentiful source of dry forage, pasture, or clean hay alongside reliable fresh water at all times.
