Like Roger I've been feeding loose salt for years. I too used Redmond
Salt until it got out of sight. It worked well in FL because the
processed salt would turn to water in the summer from the humidity. The
Redmond being coarse didn't. Now I use "Ice Cream" salt. The stuff you
get to use to make ice cream. It comes in chunks about the size of a
pea and my horses are now eating as much of this as they did the
Redmond.
When it is really hot (and humid) I also throw in some Morton Balanced
Salt (NaCl plus KCl) in their feed. But that's not the norm.

SALT
I have been feeding loose salt for ever. Never used the blocks. At first I used
just feed grade white salt, then added trace mineral salt. Which is white
processed salt with minerals added back in.
