Where's the best deal for MagOx?

I know Bruce will have the answer to this (!) but does anyone else have a great supplier at cheap cheap??  Bulk quantities preferred as my herd is growing . . . !

What's the minimum amount that Taycrest will sell?
I'm buying 3.6kg for £30 from ebay (seller pro-earth).

Righto, I've just phoned them - lovely lady called Diane - she does:

Light - 20kg bag £99.80 (so £4.99/kg)
Heavy - 25kg bag £148.75(so £5.95/kg)
Plus shipping

Bit of a bargain.  Thanks Jo M for the top tip.  Brucea, can you do any better?!

Nope - that's where I buy mine - was £125 for 20Kg - buy 2 bags of the light at a time

I wish I could find somewhere to dig it!

I rebag and resell some locally though - a few folks use it regularly.

Actually, that's the thing that confused me - Diane said she sells the light and the heavy, yet they're both 99.7% purity, yet one's cheaper than the other.  What's the real difference?  Is it just palatability?

Calmag from my local farm supplies shop. £8.60 for 25 kilos.

I understand that the lite has greater availability - but my lads don't eat the gritty calmag.

Bruce that must be hard to bear for a true Scot like you  Laughing . The price difference is just horrendous  Shocked   Mine seem to be perfectly happy with it in sugar beet, thank goodness.

Light and Heavy grade magnesium means the particlar size... the heavier the particle the easy it is to absorb and the more that is absorbed.

I use the light grade and find it works well.
