Q: Do sheep need copper?
A: Yes, sheep do need copper, but not in the same quantities as goats. Copper is essential for their health, but it’s important to balance the amount they receive, as over-consumption can lead to toxicity.
Q: How does the Mineral Buffet system address this?
A: The Mineral Buffet system is designed to provide a balanced selection of minerals without the risk of over-consumption. Since animals are not forced to consume any mineral disguised by flavorings or sweeteners, their natural taste preferences guide them to consume only what they need. This ensures they receive the right amount of each mineral, including copper, based on their individual needs.
Q: Why is the Mineral Buffet system ideal for maintaining mineral balance?
A: One of the main advantages of the Mineral Buffet system is that it eliminates the guesswork associated with mineral supplementation. You don’t need to worry about whether each animal is getting enough of each essential mineral. The system takes care of that naturally, making it easier to maintain proper mineral balance for your animals.
