Bunch of Goats with the run's. Many of them are having difficulty breathing as well with weezing. I got the Vet coming out and took out everything I'm feeding them. Sent my wife off to her Vet lab to test all the feed and hay I've been giving them as thats the only thing I can guess to be causing all this.

Something in their food poisoned them. Now its just a matter of finding said substance. Had to go out and buy some expensive Goat feed until we understand the problem. Unfortunately two of my Boer wethers died last night so we'll have them checked over for anything, one will go to my Vet and the other to our University who has one of the best Vet schools in the country.

Oh No :( SO sorry to hear that. Hope you can find out the culprit soon. Let us know so that we know not to use whatever food you were using.

Wow 77, I'm sorry to hear about your troubles with your goats. Is your feed (hay and grain) grown on the farm?
