    Salt Block

    Can anyone tell me what else in East Texas could be eating a deer salt block. The cows can't get to it, and I heard hogs can't eat them because they cant take the salt. (Don't know if that is true, just what I heard) The blocks are gettin tossed around and the ground that they are sittin on is gettin roughed up too. The blocks are gone in a couple days. Cows usually can't even to that to a block that fast. Any help?

          Hogs and rain can make salt vanish fast...big rains can do a lot.

            It's not that hogs can't eat salt, it just that people say not to feed it to them because it's bad for them. You see, hogs can't sweat. Ironic huh (sweating like a pig)? That's why they waller around in the mud. I however have seen pigs eat corn soaked in diesel firsthand, and have no qualms about baiting them with salt blocks. The hogs in my area will devour a salt block in about two days. I do like to put them out before a big rain, because they'll melt into the dirt, and it will hold the hogs to a spot for longer.

                Pretty sure the hogs behind the house eat the ones I put out along with coons, squirrels and the occasional deer.

                Apparently it does not hurt them (the hogs) because I see more and more and if it hurt them you would think I would be seeing less
