What this sheet is for
Record each kidding on the day, including the assistance and the losses, so next season is planned from what happened.
Who it is for
Dairy and fibre goat keepers, smallholders and pedigree breeders.
How to use it
- Fill it in on the day, at the pen.
- Record assistance honestly — it is the detail that predicts next time.
- Note colostrum; it is the first question asked about any sick kid.
- Tag and record sexes before the kids are mixed up.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: Every kidding recorded on the day — doe, buck, assistance, kids born and what became of them.
A record of the kidding, not advice about it. The sheet records births. It gives no guidance on when to intervene or when to call a vet, because that is a judgement made in front of the animal by somebody who can see it.

Questions
When should I call the vet?
The sheet does not say and will not. That is a judgement in front of the animal, and it depends on the doe, the presentation and your own experience.
