The antifreeze is expensive, I would work hard not to loose it.
Current production antifreeze should have bitters in it to stop animals from drinking.
Tractor tire dealers near here use a low cost version of antifreeze without the engine protection products in it.
A 50/50 mix is not necessary unless you shed gets to -50 degrees.
Just mix per container instructions to get the freeze point that is below your local low temp.
Personally I change the antifreeze in the truck, dilute what I drain out and use that. Kills two birds with one stone!!
