Ok i want to be able to maximize my 3 boomchickens dps in instances now. One thing that i know does it is the eclipse proc. Has anyone found a macro to deal with this so you can still mash dps buttons but the one that procs uses that spell till its up. If not how do you deal with the proc and make sure you use it everytime on your druid if he is your slave.

Most moonkin related threads are for managing procs on single moonkins in a group.
The only solution there was to have two versions of the click macro and switch between them.
I think the only solution is to mix up your wrath and starfire so you at least get the odd proc rather than none. Not ideal in anyway.

After sleeping on it and thinking about it today while football baseball and rennovations i came up with an idea. Well first get the add on that announces on my main character screen whos got the eclipse proc. Then bind wrath or starfire on the number pad. So when it says they proc i can still mash the one button on bosses and whoever procs mash that button at the same time. Not sure how it would work but i can try. Oh another thing finally hit 70 on my 4 druids whew and now that im 70 i got my tank sitting at 80 with 30k unbuffed hp and my 3 boomchickens have 775sp and my healer has over 800 sp was wondering do u think i could manage a 5 man of kara or would i still have to bring in some help.
If you read Fursphere's orginal Post Balance Druid Macro /w Addon Post-3.2 (http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=23317) in the thread it was discussed the idea of rotating the cast bar each Druid uses. On the third page Owltoid talks about about his plan to use this to manage a group of Durid's. Take a look.
And thanks Fursphere for your orginal macro, I have modified it to use the cast bar rotation method and I love it.

For what it's worth, my 3 boomkins use this:

It basically just winds up rotating between starfire and wrath, but my dps went up a major amount by including that into two seperate buttons. No micro-management, no addons needed, just two click buttons: one for Wrath, one for Starfire. Works wonders and doesn't mean having to watch for multiple toons proccing something and then changing your button mashing depending on that. One boomkin, that's cool, 3? Not a chance. :)
Good luck!

Fur's thread suggested 2 buttons for the Eclipse proc for a single druid. Button 1 is the click dps macro with Wrath and button 2 is the click dps macro with Starfire.
With three druids, you would need 8 (000 / 001 / 010 / 011 / 100 / 101 / 110 / 111) click dps macro's to account for each combination. It would likely prove to be quite hard to click the correct key depending on which druids had a given eclipse proc at a given time.
I'd probably just switch the last line, which reads /cast Wrath or /cast Starfire to something like /castrandom Wrath, Wrath, Starfire.

See my macro thread (read my signature).
Its going to be hard to do all three because they will proc at different times. I am using a static wrath/starfire rotation, spaced out, and it does catch the procs pretty well.
Indeed - I'm using Fur's macros, and my Moonkin gets pretty high, steady dps, even when I miss procs.
