Cobalt and mineral supplement

Dickie10

Hi lads, im looking for advice on best cobalt/supplemnt minx for store lambs, also i want something that will go through my dosing gun the hENKE metal ones. some cobalt and supplements mix are to grainy to use on gun, they block it. pink cobalt from Foran works alright

If you just want cobalt I'd suggest buying cobalt sulphate and mixing it up yourself

I use the foran one and it's fine. The b12 could be used too if you really deficient but for stores it's all about a margin.
I put the cobalt dose thru the gun last before a worm or fluke dose as the copper cleans the tube and gun. However I run water through it in the end.
Have an old Philips gun here bought it 20 odd years ago.
