[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4095431, member: 45773"] When we got our goats I was worried about them getting worms since everyone said they were prone to that. The fella that cut our hay the first time told me he saw some [B]sericea lespedeza[/B] in the hay field. I'd never heard of it so he showed me what it was. He said it was considered by lots of people to be an invasive plant...but then they found out it's a very effective, natural anti-parasite treatment for goats and some other animals. We have an area behind the house that's covered with the stuff and the goats love it. When they don't get out to graze in that area I frequently cut some up and feed it to them in their pen. They eat as much as I bring them. So far we've not had a single problem with worms in our goats.
