 Went to feed the goats this morning and my billy goat had died in the night 
He was fine yesterday. I think it was bloat as he was very bloated. The sad part was taking him to a local hunt kennels .

Aw, I'm so sorry.  Must have been an awfully painful death fro him too.  Hope he didn't suffer too much.

[maybelle]

Maybelle - I'm feel so sad for you - I dread the day that will happen and I know it will one day and it just don't bear thinking about - I guesss extra hug for the others tonight - mine are in bed or I'd give them an extra hug too xx

Sorry to read your news, It could be just the build up of stomach gasses making it look like bloat, the stomach content would keep fermenting after death and make everything swell.
