Likit Himalayan Rock Salt Lick with Rope for Horses
Description
Likit Himalayan Rock Salt Lick with Hanging Rope
The Likit Himalayan Rock Salt is a block of 100% natural Himalayan rock salt for horses and ponies, supplied with a rope so it can be hung in the stable or from a fence. It is a simple free-choice salt source that lets a horse take salt and naturally occurring trace elements as it needs them.
It is best for owners who want an easy, no-mess alternative to loose salt in the feed, and it suits both stabled horses and horses living out because the block is weather resistant. You will find more licks and stable enrichment in our horse treats and licks collection.

How to Use
- Unwrap the block and check the rope is securely threaded.
- Hang it from a stable ring, tie ring, fence post or field shelter beam.
- Set it at a comfortable head height so the horse can lick without stretching or dropping its head awkwardly.
- Position it away from the feed and water buckets so it stays as dry as possible.
- Always keep clean fresh water available nearby, as horses drink more when taking salt.
- Check the block regularly and replace it once it becomes too small to hang safely.
FAQ
Is this salt lick suitable for both stabled and field-kept horses?
Yes. The block is weather resistant, so it can be hung indoors in the stable or outdoors on a fence or in a field shelter. Outdoors it will last longer in a sheltered spot.
Do I need a holder or bracket?
No. The lick comes complete with a rope, so you can hang it straight from a stable ring, fence or shelter beam without buying a separate holder.
Why give a horse a salt lick?
Salt supplies sodium and chloride, and Himalayan rock salt also contains naturally occurring minerals and trace elements. Free-choice licking allows the horse to take what it wants rather than having salt added to every feed.
How long does a Himalayan salt lick last?
This varies with the individual horse, the weather and whether the block is hung indoors or out. Dense rock salt generally lasts longer than soft pressed mineral blocks.
Can ponies and youngsters use it?
Yes, it is suitable for horses and ponies of all types. Hang it low enough for smaller ponies and youngsters to reach comfortably.
Why do the blocks look different from each other?
Each lick is cut from natural mined rock salt, so colour, shape and weight vary slightly from block to block. This is normal.
