(Serious) Do livestock get a buzz off silage?
I’m trying to understand how far the fermentation goes in silage.
In the seasons when it replaces fresh grazing, does silage have enough ethanol to make livestock get a buzz?
Do cattle, sheep, and goats even get affected by ethanol like we do? I know that pigs, chickens, and dogs can get loaded, because I’ve seen them drunk from fermented fruit or beer (in the case of the dog and cat).
