We helped this cow become more profitable.

We can do the same for yours.

For the past 60 years, thousands of customers and millions of cattle have tried Redmond Minerals' Red Edge and never looked back. Switching to Red Edge is a small shift that makes a huge difference.

Cost SavingsEveryone claims they can save you money, so we’ll just tell you what our customers tell us: Red Edge can cut your mineral program cost in half and sometimes even more.

Better PerformanceRedmond customers tell us Red Edge cows transition more easily after calving and stay on feed more regularly. We see less milk fever and fewer problems with feet.

Simple and EffectiveReplace your minerals, salt, buffers, and toxin binders with Red Edge from Redmond Minerals. Ruminants have complex natural systems, but your mineral program doesn’t have to be complicated to get the job done. Give your herd Red Edge and watch nature make improved performance look simple.

"Our mineral program cost us about $9,000 per month before we switched to the Redmond Mineral Program. It now costs me about $2500 per month." -T.D. Dairy, Idaho

"By using Red edge, my herd's somatic cell count has dropped and their reproductive efficiency has improved as the first time conception rates have increased. I also use it because it works well with our cows as a buffer." – Jay Yardley, UT

Cost SavingsIf your mineral program costs more than 15¢ -35¢ per cow per day, Red Edge can save you money – usually savings of $100 each year per cow.

Reduced Feed Costs

Redmond Minerals cost less per cow per day than traditional mineral programs. The Redmond Program includes minerals, buffer, and toxin Binder for less than 16 cents basically anywhere in the US.

Better Herd Health

"We’ve been using Redmond for the past two years and have found a noticeable difference in the health of our cattle. Our calves handle the weaning stresses much more readily without the sickness that used to plague us. We continue to observe health improvements in our livestock with the regular use of these exceptional supplements.” - B.G., Wyoming

"My cows prefer Redmond, and it costs less than the products I had been using. My components have also improved."

The Redmond StoryWe believe that animals are endowed with the ability to choose the minerals they need. When given the choice, animals choose Redmond Natural almost every time. With Redmond Natural Trace Mineral Salt you can be assured that your animals are getting the minerals they need. It’s perfectly balanced by Mother Nature in a form that animals prefer and can use.

Redmond Salt is 100% natural mineral that is mined from an ancient crystallized seabed in Central Utah. This unique formation provides more than 60 naturally occurring crystallized trace minerals that are beneficial in maintaining your herd in a pure and perfect state of balance and optimum health. In principle, sea water, the most ancient natural solution on earth, has preserved these valuable trace minerals in a perfect synergy and proportion that is nearly identical to that found in blood. As animals consume these minerals, their bodies return to a more natural state of mineral balance. For 40 years farmers and ranchers from around the world have reported on the phenomenal benefits from feeding Redmond Salt, including how much healthier and productive their animals are.
