Q: Why is the FCE Mineral Buffet diluted with salt and rice hulls?
A: The FCE Mineral Buffet is intentionally diluted with salt and rice hulls to help limit the risk of accidental overconsumption. This dilution ensures that animals are able to access the necessary minerals without the risk of consuming too much at once.
Q: Has there ever been a case of toxicity with the FCE Mineral Buffet?
A: Since its inception in the 1960s, there has not been a single reported case of toxicity from the FCE Mineral Buffet. However, it is important to note that feeding undiluted, pure minerals can lead to fatal toxicity, which is why proper dilution and supplementation are crucial.
