Sweetlix CopperHead Hi-Mag Mineral

Product Description

Sweetlix CopperHead Hi-Mag Mineral (50 lbs. Bag)

Protect your herd from the costly risks of grass tetany while aggressively combating regional copper deficiencies with Sweetlix CopperHead Hi-Mag Mineral. Formulated specifically for lactating brood cows and beef cattle grazing lush spring or early autumn pastures, this premium, free-choice loose mineral supplement provides the ultimate seasonal defense program.

Fast-growing pasture grass is frequently deficient in magnesium and can contain high levels of mineral antagonists (like sulfur, iron, or molybdenum) that tie up copper in the animal's system. Sweetlix CopperHead Hi-Mag directly solves both challenges: it delivers a robust 14.00% minimum Magnesium profile to prevent grass tetany alongside high-potency, organic chelated trace minerals for maximum systemic absorption. Powered by signature RainBloc® technology, this granular mix forms a protective, pliable top layer after a rain event, keeping the minerals underneath dry, loose, and highly palatable.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Dual-Action Defense: Combines 14.00% minimum Magnesium to aid in the prevention of grass tetany with enhanced copper levels to counteract subclinical deficiencies.

• Organic Trace Minerals: Formulated with highly bioavailable, organic chelated sources of copper, zinc, manganese, and cobalt for more efficient systemic utilization.

• Corrects Deficiency Symptoms: Directly addresses common copper deficiency issues such as rough or discolored hair coats (red-tinged black cattle), slow spring shed-out, repeat breeders, and poor immune health.

• RainBloc Weather Protection: Advanced moisture-resistant technology significantly reduces pasture waste caused by heavy rainfall, dew, and humidity.

• Molasses-Enhanced Palatability: Combines liquid and dried molasses to drive targeted, consistent daily consumption without the worry of herd refusal.

Feeding and Management Directions:

• Free-Choice Access: Provide one covered mineral feeder for every 20 to 30 head of cattle. Locate feeders in high-traffic loafing areas, near shade, or close to clean water sources.

• Timing: Introduce this mineral 30 days before cattle are turned out onto lush pastures, and maintain continuous access throughout the high-risk seasonal grazing periods.

• Expected Consumption: Mature beef cattle should naturally consume an average of 4 ounces per head daily.

• Important Feeding Notes: Feed free-choice as the sole source of supplemental salt and minerals. Do not provide separate loose salt or salt blocks, as this will lead to the under-consumption of the high-magnesium mix. Always provide free access to clean, fresh water.

• CAUTION: Use strictly as directed. Daily consumption of selenium must not exceed 3 mg per head.

• WARNING: This product contains added copper and should not be fed to sheep or any other species with a low tolerance for supplemental copper.
