Looking to put some licks or feed down due the hard weather and wanted to know what you lot use. Can't afford to spend £40 a block from bush wear. It's only for roe. They take a bit of wheat from the feeds but are poor condition so would like to bulk them up. Any ideas would be appreciated.
 
Combined molassed vitamin and mineral from local farm store £18 per 22kg bucket, or Rocky reds 2kg salt licks £3:50 each from farm stores. Also used the bushwear 2kg aniseed blocks, Roe love them, especially when rain washes the salt down the tree trunk. Had good results with them all, but don't expect instant results. If you can get hold of some, whole Sugar beet is good

As said before, the licks may give them a boost, but if they are in bad condition then there are lots of things that could cause poor condition such as available food quality, fluke burden, etc, etc
