Baking Soda ?? yearly vaccines??

Baking soda is something like an antacid for goats. I give it to them free choice like minerals. They will take it if they need it. When my does were pregnant they ate tons of it...I imagine they had a lot of heartburn like symptoms. Vaccinations are up to you. I chose not to vaccinate and several here are the same. Most who do vaccinate do CD-T. I just give them a tetanus shot before disbudding tattooing or if they become injured. I keep it in the fridge all the time. The CD ( I cant remember the name of the disease) is to prevent overeating, but since I monitor how much they get each day, and they dont have access to the grain at any other time, I don't think they will have an issue with that.
