i'm assuming the pink salt lick in the game is himalayan salt...I have a himalayan salt grinder and the salt is pink...here is what I'm talking about. I know these are for human consumption, but these are all the flavors we have in my house. 1 is himalayan(pink), 1 is hawaiian(reddish-brown), 1 is sonoma(regular sea salt/white) and 1 is a smoked sea salt(black) that smoked one is really good on grilling meats or fish ^^ just wanted to show everyone that salts(im sure for both human and horses) can come in a variety of colors and flavors, yes they all have a slightly different taste, some are saltier then others basically. |

I live in NJ and have primarily seen the salmon-colored Himalayan salt blocks as well as the clay-colored mineral blocks. The blocks are just different colors according to what's in them, that's all - if the block is blue, for instance, it probably has cobalt in it while a red block will have iodine. The pinkish Himalayan ones have iron, potassium, and magnesium.
The white ones are just plain salt - which is just fine! Plain salt will encourage a horse to drink more water.
Just about anything beats the highlighter pink EA ones!

Yeah here in Sweden we tend to give minerals separately, as either powder or small pellets, mostly mixed with e.g. wet sugar-beat to make it taste better. Which mineral supplement you choose of course depends on wha the horse needs, for example some hay does not have enough, hm... phosphor?, and since it's very important to keep the right quoto between that and calcium one would choose a mineral supplement to help that out. Like I said before we have some mineral supplemented salt licks and salt blocks here too, but a lot of horses don't like the taste of them, and by avoiding them doesn't get enough salt, which I suppose would restrict the horse's ability to store water in its body. |

A small update:
I've recently learned that the stable board does NOT require ambitions to work ^_^ But I'm to lazy to change the picture right now xD

A little sneakpeek of a saddle hanger requested here at the forum. There will be two versions, one where the hanger is resting against the wall and one where the hanger is ready for a saddle ^_^  I'm tired, nothing ever makes sense when I'm tired  |

Sorry I could not find a better picture, but:  See the thing ont he left opposite to the white horse? That's what this saddle hanger looks like when it's not in use. There's a mechanism attacked to the wall that in combination with that hook thing on the inner end of the hanger allows you to either have it hanging down like that, or to raise it up to where it looks like the one in the sneakpeak, where you can hang a saddle on it. |
