>Ever considered free choice minerals for the stock?

Yes,unfortunately around here that is a recipe for dead animals, poor 
performance and weak lambs.

IMO it's a myth that animals will naturally balance their minerals if 
offered them individually free choice. Instead what we see is 
increasingly poor performance and eventually dead stock.
