Default where can I buy...

...a 50lb bag of granulized di-calcium phosphate, a 50lb bag of rock salt (ice cream salt) and a 50lb bag of dried cane molasses?
I need these for the home made mineral lick.
I went to Wal-Mart and they didn' t have anything. I went to Tractor Supply and they had the trace mineral salt.
Anyone know where I can buy this stuff? Thanks!

the recipe that I have for a mineral lick calls for trace mineral salt ( the red loose kind )
1 part di-calcium phosphate
2 parts trace mineral salt
1 part stock salt (ice cream salt)

That is the same one I have.
I don' t need the dried cane molasses, I read a post that said it will attract the deer faster but it is not needed. I would like to get it if I can find it where I live.

I got the trace mineral salt but I don' t know where I can buy di-calcium phosphate or rock salt (ice cream salt). A place like Wal-Mart should have rock salt (ice cream salt) right? What is di-calcium phosphate used for, what type of place would sell it?

Found a store close by that sells di-calcium phosphate. Going to check a couple stores tomorow to see if they sell rock salt. Then I am going to pull dried cane molasses out of my...since no one sells it .

Just ordered a Summit Viper Ultra, hope I like it .

Just get the Di Cal and use trace mineral salt from your farm supply store, that is all you need.

Many feed stores sell what you' re looking for , they sell dicalcium phosphate and various salts to cattle farmers .

You can get the dried cane molasses at any feed store. It' s the same stuff they mix in with ground corn for cattle feed.
