Some cattlemen are guilty of waiting too long to supplement their cattle. They wait until their pastures are gone or cattle begin to lose body condition. The simple truth is it’s more expensive to feed cattle to gain weight back than it is to maintain their body condition. Spending a little time and money now can make a big difference in the calving and breeding seasons. Enter PRO-LIX® liquid supplements.
