Just purchased some new lick tubs from Vitalix out of Alliance NE. Trying the performance #3 , 30% protien and the Commercial Cow Mineral both in the 250 lb tub. Anyone eles use these before ? Worth the money or not ? Thanks

I have never liked tubs, but have used a few.  One year, instead of tubs, I tried the beefmaker blocks by Ragland Mills.  In my opinion these are FAR more economical than any tub.  Lat year I got through the winter feeding  50 cows for under $200.  I am not sure they need it but since they are getting their mineral at the same time for about the same money, I will continue using them.  I figure why not.

Thanks for the reply , my main concern is if they last long enough for the money spent. I've tried plenty of the cheaper ones and been very unhappy with them.
