Over the week a friend farmer experienced two miscarriages involving three baby goats. After several consultations and learning, it could be seen that the following caused the above mentioned problems.
1. Cross breeding.. An advance or bigger breed of goat crossed a local goat, because of the size of the local goat it couldn't carry the baby of the bigger male goat.
2. The female goat is a new mother , meaning that is the first time the goat is giving birth and cannot carry such foetus.
3. Too many goats were stocked in a small pen causing a lot of stress to the pregnant ones.
4. Since they were confined in a particular place, balance diet problem popped up.
5. The weather was a problem, goats to like too much could weather.
