    My goats (and dog) are eating chicken poop!?

    Thank you for all your help. I do feed my goats a 16% high energy feed and a mineral block 24/7. I have loose minerals, but I was taught to only use it as a top dressing to their feed on occasion. I will give it to them free choice right away. Thank you again for your input. Mike
