ABSTRACT
Body changes in seven doe (goat) during the first and second
trimesters were studied. The animals were grouped into pregnant and non-pregnant
doe. The study lasted for fifteen weeks and the changes examined included. Body
weight (B\A/), Abdominal diameter (AD), circumference of vulva (CV), length for
vulva (LV), length of teat (LT) and circumference of udder (CU). Results showed
that the body weight (BW), Abdominal diameter (AD) circumference of udder (CU)
and length of teat (LT) made significantly changes during pregnancy. It was
then concluded that these parameters could form basis for diagnosing pregnancy
in the doe in the absence of chemical tests.
