    Round here we have high Mo which locks up copper, so at this time of year about a month before serving starts cows get a copper bolus. Before calving they get a trace sure bolus for Se and I as we are defecient in them as well, tracesure bolus is 45e approx for 10 boluses, not sure how much copper boluses are yet, roughly 1.50e each. Shop around.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
