Nice pic HHB.
The goat mix we have in Australia has AC added to it - it doesn't say how much is in there but it's simply not enough. I have my two working wethers' urine analysed every 3-4 months for crystals (which are a pre-cursor to urinary calculi) and the one that was on the goat mix had some pretty serious crystals forming at one point about 9 months ago. I immediately took him off the goat mix, fed him different hard feed, started drenching him daily with 50ml apple cider vinegar and then added AC to the kelp meal. No trace of crystals ever since.
