Calving dairy cows on grass you get the same issues especially if fresh off forage crops, about the only way is to dust the pasture and move them onto it in daily or twice daily rations, they have no option then but to have it.
Even thirsty cattle don't drink enough sometimes to get their requirement from water, if you ramp it up they won't drink it
That would be my best solution, causmag, mag oxide, whatever you call it; fill a bucket and put a glove on, if you have no other way
Hope you get them sorted @jemski
It's 24 acres.... may take me some time.
