Fescue Mixed Hay

Bad for goats??

I have heard that if horses get into fescue, it can cause problems with lactation, and producing enough milk. I'm not sure if it's the same with goats though.

I dont have any does on milk... well one, but her kid is old enough to be weaned (and shes already started weaning).

I think I read somewhere something about abortions, etc etc

Tall fescue can be toxic to goats. There is a fescue (Max Q) on the market that is not prone to the toxic fungus the tall fescue gets.
