That is 40-45% salt but very high in several minerals/vitamins compared to the deer mineral. Here is a label off of Purina Deer Mineral for comparison(notice the difference in Salt and others): http://wildlife.purinamills.com/stellent/groups/public/@purinawildlife/documents/web_content/ecmd2-0063606.pdf This is what I have out for my Ibex and the deer also eat it. Anything in it that would be bad for the deer? A lot of salt but maybe that is a good attractant to get them to eat the minerals.

The Ash has me curious, I know there is Ash salt, basically a cheaper, less flavorful colored lite salt. Then there is Ash mineral? The same thing? Got his off Google, not sure if it applies here. "Ash = total inorganic matter Ash is a measure of the total mineral content of the feed, but it does not tell us how much of each mineral is present. Ash is not digestible by animals. High ash content of feeds may dilute the amount of nutrients available to the animal. Bone con tent of feeds of animal origin can contribute to ash content. If a plant feed is high in ash content, it may be due to soil contamination during harvest of the plant material. Although minerals are not digested by animals, some are essential to their health http://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/oc/freepubs/pdf/livestock_feed_analysis.pdf

[quote=Junebug]You asked about what was in the bryant 16% deer pellet I asked about. Here it is, please tell me what you think
Crude protein (min) 16% Crude fat (min). 5% Crude fiber (max). 10% Calcium(min). .75% Calcium(max). 1.25% Phosphers(min). .60% Copper(min). 5ppm Copper(max). 15ppm Zinc. 150ppm Selenium(min). .25ppm VitaminA (min). 20000iu/lb
I guess I need to compare mine to the Southwest
quote]Calcium (min) 13.00% Calcium (max) 13.60% Phosphorous (min) 10.00% Salt (min) 20.00% Salt (max) 21.25% Magnesium (min) 0.75% Potassium (min) 0.80% Copper (min) 38.0 ppm Copper (max) 40.0 ppm Selenium (min) 19.5 ppm Zinc (min) 5698 ppm Vitamin A (min) 82,000IU/lb

Yup the salt content would be a higher % in the ash measurement

Anything in it that would be bad for the deer? A lot of salt but maybe that is a good attractant to get them to eat the minerals. Deer will eat something because there is something in it they need. I have seen deer at cattle mineral sites. Mineral packages for some livestock and whitetais will be specific for their individual needs. Not to say that an animal can get a benefit from the other mineral. Salt can either be an attractant or limiter in minerals/feeds. Texas soils and plants have a lot of salt in it in many areas.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?
