Very cold and\/or wet weather when kidding:\u00a0Kids lose body energy very rapidly when in cold or wet environments. As a result, they may become weak and die.<\/p>\n
Maiden does:\u00a0These does do not have experience to take care of newborn kids and may abandon their kids easily, especially to near-term does with strong maternal instincts.<\/p>\n
Does in poor health:\u00a0Sick or weak does may show indifference to their newborns and\/or may not be able to produce enough colostrum and milk required by kids.<\/p>\n
Multiple births: When three or more kids are born, even an experienced doe may not be able to provide enough care and nourishment for all kids.<\/p>\n
Weak newborn kids:\u00a0They may not be able to stand up and suckle on their own.<\/p>\n
Does with poor mothering ability may not provide enough care and also may abandon their kids.<\/p>\n
Risk of predators:\u00a0When the kidding area is not well protected from predators, newborn kids may be killed or injured.<\/p>\n
Poor sanitation and hygienic condition:\u00a0Under such conditions, there is a high risk of infectious diseases and parasites. Newborn kids, especially those weak or poorly fed, easily succumb to pathogens.<\/p>\n
Crowded condition:\u00a0Aggressive animals in a herd may approach and attack or steal newborn kids. Also, such conditions harbor more pathogens and make the environment stressful compared to less crowded conditions.<\/p>\n
To avoid kid loss from any of the above situations, owners should keep breeding records and plan to attend kidding with necessary supportive knowledge, skills, and materials.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
