Mineral Buffet Reorder Packs — Full 21-Mineral Refill (Refills Only)

Important: These are refills for an existing Mineral Buffet setup. The system only works when all 21 minerals are available together at all times. We do not recommend (or support) using single minerals by themselves—doing so creates imbalances and defeats the purpose of a free-choice buffet. If you’re not already running the full kit, start with the 21-Mineral Starter Kit.

What You’re Getting

• 21 individually packaged, premium-grade minerals (same formulas as the Starter Kit)

• Clear, durable labels on every pouch for fast ID and accurate placement

• Species-ready: suitable for goats, sheep, cattle, and horses in a free-choice system

• Multiple sizes to match your herd and refill cadence: 0.5 lb, 1 lb, 2 lb, 5 lb, 10lb, 15lb, and 25lb per mineral

Why Reorder Packs Matter

Free-choice only works when animals can self-select from a complete buffet—every hour of every day. Running short on even one mineral skews intake, pushes overconsumption of substitutes, and quietly erodes results. Reorder Packs keep your bar full so the herd’s instincts do the balancing for you.

How to Use (Refill Protocol)

1. Keep all 21 minerals out—always. No gaps, no substitutions, no mixing.

2. Top off at ⅓–½ remaining. Don’t let bins run empty; steady access = steady intakes.

3. Never mix minerals together and don’t blend into feed. Free-choice is the method.

4. Keep dry and covered. Use weather-proof trays/bins; avoid wind, rain, and splash.

5. Provide plain salt and clean water 24/7. Salt drives proper mineral appetite; water makes it work.

6. Track consumption. Note which stations move fastest; patterns inform pasture, season, and management.

Tip: If one mineral disappears unusually fast, resist the urge to pull it. That signal is the point—animals correct their own deficits when the full buffet is present.

Sizing & Reorder Guidance

Choose pack size by herd size, species, season, and your existing refill rhythm:

• 0.5 lb – Small herds, trials, or tight rotation schedules

• 1 lb – Typical for 10–15 head in steady use

• 2 lb – Multi-species herds, active growth/breeding seasons

• 5 lb – 25lb – Larger herds, minimal downtime, remote feeders

Consumption varies with soil, forage, genetics, weather, and stage (growth, lactation, breeding). Most operations settle into a 4–12 week reorder cycle once intakes stabilize.

What You’ll Notice (Real-World Outcomes)

Producers consistently report calmer temperament, cleaner coats/shine, firmer hooves, steadier gains, and smoother breeding cycles once mineral access is truly constant. Free-choice isn’t a gimmick—it’s animals doing the math you can’t.

Quality & Handling

• High-bioavailability ingredients only—formulated for uptake, not label fluff

• Batch-consistent blends to ensure repeatable results

• Storage: Keep sealed, cool, and dry. Avoid humidity and contamination between stations.

FAQs

Can I buy single minerals only?
We don’t recommend it. Singles are refills for maintaining a complete buffet, not stand-alone supplements. Running one or a few minerals without the full set creates imbalances and undermines outcomes.

Sheep and copper?
Copper is part of the buffet—many sheep operations run it successfully in free-choice systems. Monitor intake and consult your nutritionist/vet for copper-sensitive breeds or unusual conditions.

Keep the buffet full. Reorder today to maintain round-the-clock access to all 21 minerals—the only way the Mineral Buffet delivers the results it’s known for.

What Each Mineral Does

• Acid Neutralizer (Buffer) – Helps manage pH, prevents acidosis in ruminants

• Calcium – Critical for strong bones, milk production, muscle function
• Cobalt – Key for rumen B12 synthesis and red blood cell formation
• Copper – Boosts immune system, coat quality, hoof strength, and fertility
• Iodine – Supports thyroid function and reproductive efficiency
• Iron – Essential for oxygen transport and energy metabolism
• Magnesium – Relieves stress, prevents tetany, enhances enzyme function
• Manganese – Promotes growth, joint health, and reproductive success
• Molybdenum – Helps regulate copper absorption; enzyme co-factor
• Phosphorus – Vital for growth, reproduction, energy, and bone strength
• Potassium – Regulates hydration, muscle function, and nerve activity
• Salt – Key to hydration, nerve impulses, and mineral balance.
• Selenium – Protects against oxidative stress; improves fertility and muscle tone
• Silicon – Supports connective tissue and skeletal formation
• Sodium – Crucial for hydration, digestion, and pH balance
• Sulfur – Protein synthesis, detoxification, hoof integrity, and wool growth
• Zinc – Vital for immune health, skin, hooves, and enzyme activity
• Vitamin A, C, E – Essential antioxidant that supports fertility, muscle, and immune function
