Kim Siebert is passionate about cattle - always has been, and always will be. Kim and his son farm and ranch in Southeastern Nebraska. He first started using the Riomax lick tubs a few years ago, and although Kim admits that the Riomax price tag is "a little bit scary", he's been using the product long enough now to realize that the benefits make it worth it. As Kim notes, you may not notice any drastic differences in the first year, but as you get into years two and three of using the product, you'll be amazed.
Kim noticed that many of his "little headaches" began disappearing. Things like fewer, if any, cows to clean, less problems with bloating, and reduced calf sickness issues. On top of that, Kim says it's "fun working with somebody who is results-driven and trying to sell me a solution to my problems".

Barry & Dora Brown, owners and operators of Bar Double D Ranch in Saskatchewan, have been ranching for about 19 years now. Barry and his wife have always believed in providing a mineral tub of some sort to their cattle, and they track things carefully on their ranch. When they first decided to use Riomax on their small herd, they felt the cost was "pretty brutal". But soon, they began to notice small differences in their cows and calves. Those differences added up quickly, and when they stopped using Riomax for a short time, their overall cost actually increased, even though the tubs they were using had a cheaper upfront cost. Hear them tell their story, and why they continue to use Riomax to this day.

When Danny Schwab from Southern Saskatchewan first heard the Riomax claims about increased calf weight gain, feed savings, and a consumption guarantee, he wanted to try it out for himself. Was what he heard true? Danny has now been feeding Riomax for 3 years and has eliminated loose mineral, decreased feed costs, improved conception rates by about 5%, increased weaning weights by nearly 30 pounds, and has better overall herd health. He said as long as Riomax keeps showing him good results, he's going to stick with it!
