Goat Fancier
No worries N.Smithurmond(Nick, Nicki, Nikki?) I don't mind when people have questions that they are seeking clarification on... especially when it comes to something I have said. I would much rather have the opportunity to clarify my intent or meaning than to have someone assume I was meaning something completely opposite than my meaning/intent
... it is never fun for anyone involved, when meanings or intent are misconstrued/misinterpreted. Written word is so difficult sometimes, as one can not hear the intended inflections.
I think this is an area that really needs a proper scientific study done, to see what actual difference potassium makes in a goats diet. Until it is verified one way or the other, I would rather air on the side of caution and limit it or remove it all together. As I stated previously, why pay to supplement and bring the diet back into balance, if you can just eliminate the potential for the need to correct in the first place... right?
ETA: or am I just too frugal?!?
