Is there any relatively easy treatment for acorn toxicity?

[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1721031, member: 18945"] That, is the usual symptom. Poopy rears and black tail switches. The cattle that [B]will[/B] eat them love them but the acorns run right thru them, which is why they gorge themselves on them. They aren't retaining much sustenance. I don't 'know' that breed specifics has anything to do with it, but my beefmasters wouldn't eat 'em but about 1/4 of my simm/char cows would and did. The char/angus cross cows here now (pasture is leased to a neighbor) are worse about it than any I've ever seen. He doesn't feed near as much hay as I did tho. [/QUOTE]
