Goat digestive problems

[pmjblue]

Is there a 'goat' specialist out there?!! - my friend saved a goat at 2 days old that had been abandoned by its mother. There have been numerous problems, but she is a little sweetie, now 3 months old - and up until last week has been living in the kitchen, being completely house trained, she plays with the dogs and thinks she is one. They have built her a paddock and are in the process of building her house and when it is warm enough she will live in their quite happily, with hopefully a playmate. However, she has suddenly developed diahroah - I know nothing about goats, but she has spoken to a few farmers, and eliminated everything they can think of, and the only other suggestion was the spring grass, but she is now being limited to an hour a day, and surely it should have cleared up by now - she is still being 'bottle fed' - any ideas? - she is absolutely fine in herself, but has now been banned to the stable during the night, and she is not a happy bunny!!

A few oak leaves might help, she should be having a varied diet, with lots of leaves, twigs, bark etc.
