Are bamboo shots poisonous to goats?

Bamboo shoots are not inherently poisonous to goats; however, they can be difficult for them to digest and may cause gastrointestinal upset if consumed in large quantities. Young bamboo shoots contain cyanogenic compounds that can release cyanide when metabolized, which might be harmful in significant amounts. It's best to introduce bamboo shoots gradually and monitor for any adverse reactions. Always consult a veterinarian for specific dietary concerns regarding your goats.
