Add some molasses to your mix it will help hold all the smaller, finer material together with the coarser stuff.
Molasses is also a good sores of manganese, copper, iron, calcium, magnesium, B6, and selenium.

Do you mean molasses powder or liquid? I presume the powder would be a little sticky too, is why I ask.

Liquid,
You can use either Blackstrap (feed Grade) molasses or Unsulphured molasses.
I tent to get what my feed mill has on hand.

Better late than never:



A steel drum (of a convenient size) with a shaft mounted through opposite corners (online as "seed dressing drum") should do the job nicely

or you could just put the feed in an open top drum with a few pieces of angle iron bolted inside, attach lid, and roll it around.
