Are radish leaves ok for goats to eat?
« on: May 15, 2015, 08:58:39 am »
A friend brought over a load of radishes from his garden yesterday, but before I give the goats anything new I always google it to make sure it's safe/healthy.
There's conflicting information, some people say their goats love it, others say definitely don't give it.
Help?!  :goat:
2 pygmy goats, 3 Ouessant sheep, 19 chickens, 2 donkeys, 2 Shetland ponies and 2 dogs

A few won't do any harm, but I would not give many... better on your compost if you have loads.
