first off a goat is not an equine it is a rumaten (sp) A horse only has one stomach and a goat has three, however, it is intended for used as a chick starter, now that the ducks are grown, layer pellets should be used. As far as the dog and goat eating it, I don't know what the side effects there could be, never experienced it, but I wouldn't make a habit of it, Layer pellets though I have shared that with my goats, as they would eat what my ducks left over, and finally I just started feeding my ducks the goat feed and quit buying the layer pellets, so you could do that too.

Shellybabe,
Hey. I've always fed my ducks that. I've hard you shouldn't feed a grown duck that, but I read on the back of the bag that it was ok to continue feeding ducks that when they are grown..
Good News about Reese, though. He started eating his 'sweet feed' this morning that I bought for him!

Well if it says so on the bag, I guess it would be ok then,
I never bought it in a bag with directions on it, I always bought it in little two pound bags like lunch bags.
Great to hear about Reese, I know he will catch on quick.
