DIY mineral blocks?

[GailC]

Has anyone ever tried making there own mineral blocks? I had a nearly empty jar of miner all so I mixed it with some bentonite clay, a little calcium powder and some powdered hibiscus.

Made a really thick paste and formed it into two blobs on plastic, just got to wait for it to dry.

Seen a couple of individuals use plastic Ice Cube trays and like toy molding products. They add a twist tie once the mix is poured.

Little mold are a great idea. If these are a hit, I'll try that next time.

Would like to find a good recipe but they all seem to have plaster in them and I won't use it.
