Product DescriptionAnimal Lick Salt
A mineral lick (also known as salt lick or natural lick salt) is a natural mineral deposit where animals in nutrient-poor ecosystems can obtain essential mineral nutrients. In an ecosystem, salt/mineral licks often occur naturally, providing the sodium, calcium, iron, phosphorus and zincrequired in the springtime for bone, muscle and other growth in deer and other wildlife, such as moose, elephants, tapirs, cattle, woodchucks, domestic sheep, fox squirrels, mountain goats and porcupines. Harsh weather exposes salty mineral deposits that draw animals from miles away for a taste of needed nutrients. It is thought that certain fauna can detect calcium in salt licks.

Salt is essential for horses and vital for blood formation and digestion. Also, salt is lost through sweating and exercise and needs replenishing. Very little salt is used in manufactured feed, hence the need for daily access to salt as a supplement. Horses will self-regulate their intake, actively seeking salt if required and ignoring it if not.
Himalayan salt licks are mined from deposits over 250 million years old; they are rich in mineralsand trace elements which give the salt licks their distinctive pink color. They are extremely hard, making them very weather resistant and more difficult for the horse to bite chunks off, which is what often happens with the softer, pressed, salt licks.
When salt intake is below that required to meet the animal’s need for sodium and chloride, the animal adjusts by conserving salt. Urine output of sodium and chloride nearly stops. A continuous low salt intake affects the health of animals through a loss of appetite and weight. Feed utilization decreases and it takes more feed per unit of gain or product produced. Animals soon develop a craving for salt. They may consume considerable amounts of dirt, wood, rocks and other materials, if they do not have access to salt blocks. Lactating animals are most susceptible to a salt deficiency because milk contains a considerable amount of sodium and chloride.
Most mass-produced animal licks consist of salt with artificially added minerals and trace elements. These minerals, such as potassium and magnesium and the trace elements are important for your animal’s health. However in salt production these are regarded as impurities and areremovedduring the production process.

Properties of Himalayan Salt Licks
Himalayan rock salt licks are literally'rock hard’,this means that horses and ponies areunable to bite chunksoff the block, a problem that can occur with the softer ’pressed’ salt licks. These licks are also much more weather resistant, which means they can be safely left outside in the field for horse to 'self dose’.Company Information
