Management Of The Pregnant Doe: General Caprine Health

Abstract

Bio-security should be the first and most important part of a herd health program for goat health care maintenance. No new animals should be brought to the farm and introduced into the general population of the farm unless they first have undergone a complete examination and have been quarantined for a minimum of 30 days with no contact with the remainder of the flock. Strict measures to minimize the introduction of diseases foreign to a farm must be observed.
