I just put out a new flower bed with 2 tiny white azaleas in it along w/some annuals. The 2-legged kids were playing on the gate (read- swinging like monkeys) and evidently left it cracked so naturally the goats were out the next morning in the new flower bed. They ate everything but the marigolds and today I had a few does with dirty bottoms. It's not smelly and everybody is still eating and acting fine. No temps and nobody is hunched over or grinding teeth but just very, very pale green runny stools. It's been about 3 years since I've had to deal with cocci in my herd but I used to fight it all the time and this doesn't look like it to me.
Are azaleas poisonous to goats? I have a list somewhere of landscaping plants to avoid but I have no idea where it is and I don't remember if azaleas were on it. It's been two days so I don't think anybody is going to die from it but is there something I should be doing? I have baking soda out and I do have some pepto, probios, and neomycin here but I'm not even sure it's a case of food poisoning yet so I'm not sure if I even need to give them anything??? What do you think.
I had azaleas, snapdragons, marigolds, and some pretty red leafy, bushy type of plant. (sorry no green thumb and the name has escaped me). Does any of that send out a red flag to you guys?
Thanks!
