"Orchard grass is completely fine and wonderful. It's a great hay for bucks, wethers, and dry does.  It is my understanding that fescue fungus is only a problem in the Kentucky 31 variety of fescue. There are lots of other types of fescue,…"

"Hi Kenneth- I am not familiar with fescue fungus. I have only ever fed alfalfa, coastal, and sudan hay to my goats. Let me see what I can find out. Deborah may have knowledge of this to share with you."

"Kenneth said, "we worm our goats with Manna Pro Positive Pellets Goat Dewormer with 10 oz, ever 60 days." You should not be using a dewormer on all of your goats on a schedule like that. It's like giving your goats an antibiotic every…"
