Wow, what a hectic and exciting week. I have 2 new kids, and a Saanen doe that is not the smartest bulb in the bush. Last night I went out to check on the goats before I headed to bed and Whitney was 
vomiting every where. 
Yelled for QM and concluded that she may have got some mold hay. We drenched her with molasses, pepto, probios, elcetrolytes and water about 16 ozs. Oh, she was not happy.
My DH told me that she was eating azealas in the front yard last night I thought you knew.
I have thought about changing her name to Brittney instead of Whitney 
I called my vet to see if there was anything else I should be doing? When I told him it was azealas, he told me he would have drenched differently, Mineral oil based not digestive base. He told me since it had been about 12 hours keopectate to get the rest out of her then supportive care. fluid drenches and such.
I am putting this out there what would you have done? and I would like to get a good medical book to help or should I be calling the vet more often.
UPDATE: She is still standing and is actually wanting to eat she ate some of her favorite traets, craisins blueberry
Tomorrow we are building a buck pen and moving the does and kids to the new nursery the 20x40 yard and 10x10 indoor sleep area, I need to build my milk stand and chicken brooder, I am expanding my population to hopefully include all the orpington colors or at least the 4 main ones white, blue, black and buff. They will have a 8X16 coop and 30X30 yard.
I am also thinking about getting a few turkeys for the goat yard I think if I get them at TSC or Atwoods I have to buy 6 that should be good to start right?
